Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World by Vicki Myron

4.0

A really touching story about a librarian and "her" cat who lived his 19 years in a small-town library in Iowa.

I fell in love with Dewey in the pages of this book.. His story really touched me and I found it very inspiring how a whole town and eventually even some people much further away could love one animal so unconditionally. :)

I will say that I wasn't really into the parts of the story telling of the town history.. But it did help bring together the story nicely. I did however, really enjoy reading about Vicki's family. And I found it so cute how Dewey loved her daughter Jodi so much that he stuck to her side like glue every time he saw her. :)

This book had me smiling so much my face hurt!
But it also had me misty eyed quite a few times through out the story as well... from tears of joy to tears of sadness. As we all know the story of anyone's life will also include their death.. Reading of Dewey dying just broke my heart in two for Vicki and all those who loved such a wonderful animal like him. :'(
