Library Cat group in Penguin Community.
The cat that captured America''s hearts returns, to share
more of his special brand of magic.
Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World
was a blockbuster bestseller and a publishing phenomenon. It has
sold nearly a million copies, spawned three children''s books, and
will be the basis for an upcoming movie. No doubt about it, Dewey
has created a community. Dewey touched readers everywhere, who
realized that no matter how difficult their lives might seem, or
how ordinary their talents, they can-and should- make a positive
difference to those around them. Now, Dewey is back, with even more
heartwarming moments and life lessons to share.
Dewey''s Nine Lives offers nine funny, inspiring, and
heartwarming stories about cats--all told from the perspective of
"Dewey''s Mom," librarian Vicki Myron. The amazing felines in this
book include Dewey, of course, whose further never-before-told
adventures are shared, and several others who Vicki found out about
when their owners reached out to her. Vicki learned, through
extensive interviews and story sharing, what made these cats
special, and how they fit into Dewey''s community of perseverance
and love. From a divorced mother in Alaska who saved a drowning
kitten on Christmas Eve to a troubled Vietnam veteran whose heart
was opened by his long relationship with a rescued cat, these
Dewey-style stories will inspire readers to laugh, cry, care, and,
most importantly, believe in the magic of animals to touch
individual lives.
