Dewey

Vicki Myron discusses her best-selling book, Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World.By The Walt Bodine Show, Dec 3, 2008

Kansas City, MO – We discover how Dewey the cat survived being abandoned on one of the coldest days of the year, to inspire those around him with his affection, enthusiasm and antics. Find out how, throughout his nineteen years, Dewey became not just a local but an international celebrity.

Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World has quickly climbed to the top 10 on The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Publishers Weekly and other lists of best sellers.
