具体描述
How much of an impact can an animal have? How many lives can one cat touch? How is it possible for an abandoned kitten to transform a small library, save a classic American town, and eventually become famous around the world? You can't even begin to answer those questions until you hear the charming story of Dewey Readmore Books, the beloved library cat of Spencer , Iowa .
Dewey's story starts in the worst possible way. Only a few weeks old, on the coldest night of the year, he was stuffed into the returned book slot at the Spencer Public Library. He was found the next morning by library director, Vicki Myron, a single mother who had survived the loss of her family farm, a breast cancer scare, and an alcoholic husband. Dewey won her heart, and the hearts of the staff, by pulling himself up and hobbling on frostbitten feet to nudge each of them in a gesture of thanks and love. For the next nineteen years, he never stopped charming the people of Spencer with his enthusiasm, warmth, humility, (for a cat) and, above all, his sixth sense about who needed him most.
As his fame grew from town to town, then state to state, and finally, amazingly, worldwide, Dewey became more than just a friend; he became a source of pride for an extraordinary Heartland farming town pulling its way slowly back from the greatest crisis in its long history.

读后感
最早忘了是在哪里知道这本书的了，上周忽然想起来，就在卓越网上买了，用了两天时间看完。我知道看到最后是会有伤感的，一只猫，最多十几年的寿命，结局肯定是悲伤的，所以等家里没人了，才仔细的把最后的部分看完，尽管这只叫杜威的猫活了19岁，算是长寿加奇迹了，可...
评分文/洪棉棉 我现在坐在电脑的对面，怀想着5年前我的咪咪坐在我的膝头，我坐在椅子上，它盯着我猫眼半眯，我盯着缝纫机看着针头一上一下，窗外阳光烂漫。 我看见杜威的时候，不可抑制的笑意蔓延，我的咪咪永远也不会有这般专注的眼神。它似乎生来就极度符合猫咪慵...
评分并不是很多人有如下这般经历：在疲惫不堪的工作后、瑟瑟冬夜里，或是难挨的精神苦痛时，身旁总有一位这样的朋友默默地支持着你——它不会说话，但懂得倾听；它有生命，但没有人类的阴郁狡诈。若是你有过或正拥有这样一位朋友，你是幸运的。 是的，我说的是一只猫，它正躺...
评分动物与人之间的关系恐怕是最玄妙最离奇的了。我不止一次地看见朋友亲戚在谈及家养小犬去世时忍不住滴落的眼泪。“没有经历过你不会知道的。我劝你以后可千万别养宠物。”每个人最后都抹着泪告诫我。 近年来一直流行的“我与xx宠物的故事”的书籍已经成为畅销书的基本模...
评分当年龄已高的杜威，仍然完美地履行它在图书馆惯常的责任，自然体贴地穿梭于聚会的人群中间，然后精疲力尽地累倒在睡塌上时，爱它和了解它的馆员感动地凝视它——你可有过类似的经历，当看着和你永生相伴的爱侣在人群中那样出色，萌生出的无比骄傲和自豪......杜威就是会令你想...
