    Story
    (48)

    In the best-selling tradition of Rescuing Sprite comes the story of a puppy brought back from the brink of death, and the family he adopted. Heartwarming and redemptive, Oogy is the story of the people who were determined to rescue this dog against all odds, and of the family who took him home, named him "Oogy" (an affectionate derivative of ugly), and made him one of their own.

    SomervilleWhereElse says: "Lovely story"
    "Good story. Pet lovers will like this book."

    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 19 years, he never stopped charming the people of Spencer....

    Nancy says: "Heart touching story"
    "Sweet Story"

    If you could sum up Dewey in three words, what would they be?

    Sweet, Loving, petlover


    What other book might you compare Dewey to and why?

    art of racing in the rain


    What does Susan McInerny bring to the story that you wouldn???t experience if you just read the book?

    she has a comforting voice


    Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

    I laughed andI cried. I am a pet owner. I had animals that are special needs and have had to put animals down. But every moment I had with them was worth it.

    Soulful and sultry, Jennifer Hudson wowed the world with her powerful voice in American Idol's third season, and then took Hollywood by storm with a star turn in Dreamgirls that won her an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. Full of stories from her American Idol days, her experience acting in Dreamgirls, and how her son inspired her to want to live healthfully, this book is a gift for her millions of fans and an inspiration for anyone struggling with weight issues.

    Michelle says: "An ad for weight watchers"
