Dewey, a rescued kitten, becomes the library cat at Spencer Library. Initially, he loves his new home, but the young visitors' playful antics make him doubt his place. As Dewey navigates tail-pulling and tight squeezes, he wonders if he's cut out for this job. Can Dewey discover his true calling and share his unique love with everyone? Join Dewey on his heartwarming journey to find out if he can be the best library cat of all.
The story of Dewey the celebrated library cat is now available for the youngest of readers in this new, fully-illustrated picture book adventure. When Librarian Vicki Myron finds a young kitten abandoned in the Spencer Library return box, she nurses him back to health, deciding then and there that he will be their library cat, and naming him, appropriately, Dewey Readmore Books. Dewey loves his new home, but once he discovers the littlest library visitors-who like to chase him, pull his tail, and squeeze him extra tight-Dewey begins to wonder if he’s truly cut out for the demands of his new job. In the end, he is triumphant as he realizes that helping people big and small is what he is meant to do, and that by sharing his special brand of Dewey love, he can be the best library cat of all.
