Myron, Vicki. Dewey : the small-town library cat who touched the world, London : Hodder, 2009.

Vicki Myron, who was the head librarian at Spencer Library,  found a tiny, bedraggled kitten almost frozen to death in the night drop box of the library on one of the coldest mornings of the year.  The townspeople of Spencer named the little kitten Dewey, as he lived at the library, and as he grew into a handsome ginger cat he became a beacon of hope for a small  town suffering from the farm crisis of the 1980s. Dewey’s mischievous nature and funny antics kept the library patrons amused and his sixth sense about people who were in need lead to many loving friendships, and as his fame grew people from all over the world fell in love with him. This book is an easy read to be enjoyed by all ages, cat lovers or just animal lovers who believe that one small special bundle of fur can change the quality of life for many people.

Dewey : the small-town library cat who touched the world is on the bestseller list for:- Globe and Mail, Northern California Independent Booksellers Association, New York Times, Barnes & Noble, San Francisco Chronicle, Publishers Weekly, Washington Post, Booksense and Amazon.com.
