Love cats? You'll love this book!November 21, 2008 I'm not a big fan of Iowa, but I came to love this place where a kitten managed to survive a deadly cold night in a metal box to become the darling of a town. Dewey was a great cat, obviously, and his personality shines through. I can't say this book is well-written, but Vicki Myron and her co-writer do a good job with presenting Dewey in the best possible light. What makes the book good is that anyone who knows/owns/or is owned by cat can see feline all over dear Dew. You keep looking at the picture on the cover and thinking, "What a gorgeous cat!" Vicki's own story is rather choppy and full of holes, although her love for her family, especially her mother is evident. But her story is secondary to Dewey's and I wanted more of him. A great rescue story, and a testament to the versatility of the cat personality. This is a lovely story and worth the read.
Not what I expectedNovember 21, 2008 This book was not at all what I expected. I was very disappointed. By the title expected something on the lines of Marley and Me, this was more of an autobiography rather than the exploits of a cat.
It was well written and kept your interest but if you are looking for a cat story you will also be disappointed.
A must readNovember 20, 2008 When I saw this book on Amazon.com I knew it was one that I must read. I own 2 cats and love to read so I was eager to read this story. The story of Dewey is more than just a story of a cat, it is the story of a town, a librarian and life itself. Dewey's adventures as a library cat were funny and touching and the end of the story came much too soon. This is a great book for those who want to escape for a few hours.

Who wants to go to a liberry with smelling like cat dook? I sure as heck do not. That's why I recommend this book.
HEART WARMINGNovember 17, 2008 In these troubled times with the economy, it's such a pleasure to read a book so heart warming.
