  Underwhelming (07 January 2009)
I'm sure Dewey was a great cat, but this book would have been better as a short story or even an essay. There simply wasn't enough material here about Dewey, the supposed subject of the book. Additionally, I really disliked how the author constantly anthropomorphized him, even going so far as to say what he was thinking (in italics) throughout the book. Overall, I felt that the quality of the writing was lacking. I skimmed the last third of the book, just to get through it. It just wasn't as enjoyable as all of the reviews have made it out to be.

  Purfectly wonderful TAIL (06 January 2009)
I loved this book. It was the best read I had in a very long time. After seeing this in the check out line at Best Buy (of all places) I checked it out of our local library. I laughed, I cried and was uplifted by the stories of Dewey, Vicki and the entire town of Spencer. It goes to show that one person (or in this case, cat) really can make a difference in peoples lives. Thank you, Vicki, for sharing the story of Dewey Readmore Books with the world. I wanted the book to go on forever as it was such an enjoyable experience.

  Heart warming Dewey (06 January 2009)
This was a nice book. I would have liked more about the cats day to day antics and more pictures, but the author by using history of the area around her helped you understand Deweys appeal. Nice book

  Absolutely fantastic book. I was crying at the end. You'll love it. (06 January 2009)
One of the sweetest books I ever read. For cat lovers, animal lovers, and just people who enjoy a beautiful story. No wonder it's on all the best seller lists!

  Cat Lover Extraordinaire (06 January 2009)
A lovely, charming tale about a cat who made friends and influenced people of all walks of life and all ages.
