About This Book
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.
