Summary: On the coldest night of the year, a tiny kitten was stuffed into the book drop of the public library in Spencer, Iowa. The librarians named him Dewey Readmore Books, and for nineteen years he greeted visitors and comforted a farm town through hard times. This middle-grade adaptation of the bestselling memoir Dewey tells his true story, with an eight-page photo insert.
