Dewey..the Small-Town Library Cat who...

It was a wonderful book. Dewey was loved by MILLIONS of people. He was one very lucky cat. I cried at the end.

They also have his story in the video "PUSS IN BOOKS ... adventures of the library cat". It's a video of all the different cats that live in libraries. My students loved it, and almost all cried about Baker and Taylor, the cats from the publisher Baker & Taylor. It's a heartwarming video.

Yes, it's a wonderful book! Get the tissues ready when you read it. What happened to the movie about Dewey with Meryl Streep? Did it ever get to the theaters? I don't often get to the movies, but I'd like to see Dewey on the big screen.

I have read that book too, after reading an article about it in my Your Cat magazine that I have a subscription with. It is sad but also uplifting, like any story about living life, be in animal or human. I cried my eyes out when Dewey died of course, and it made me think of losing Jack but it's worth it to know what a wonderful cat Dewey was, he was a star. I hope you're playing hard at the bridge Dewey. xx

Another book I think people should read is "The Cat Who Cried for Help". VERY compelling. Shows how people always think of themselves, trying to mold their animals into what THEY think it should be, i.e. devocalization, declawing, etc. It's an eye opening read.
