Soon I will be deep in my books for my final semester at UWGB. Before I jump into those textbooks, I'm doing some fun reading.
I just finished Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World. The story by Vicki Myron, Dewey's mom, was touching. It was a lot about Vicki and the people of Spencer, Iowa along with stories about Dewey.
When reading about the life of an animal, be prepared for the end. It's a no-brainer what happens to all living things after a long life. Like the book and now movie about the dog, Marley and me, when reading about Dewey be prepared for a sad ending. I thought I was, but as with Marley, I cried.... both are still good stories. If you want to take in the fun about animals, quit reading before the last episode/chapter or walk out of the movie. You know what happens. My advice for sentimental readers is to take the best part of the stories, the fillet as it were, and leave the rest. Either that or get out a box of tissues.
