With Bret Witter. Adapted from the adult book, this version for middle-grade readers describes how an abandoned kitten changes the librarian-author, her library, and the small town that adopts him. With a friendly voice, Myron brings readers along as she tells of finding and caring for the increasingly famous Dewey. Young animal lovers will be the best audience for this heartwarming story.

A ball of red yarn twisted around the library Christmas tree by resident cat Dewey brings first prize for tree decorating to the library. The text and digital illustrations of the humans are stiff and uninspired, while the depictions of the orange title character are lively and warm.
