Iowa librarian, Vicki Myron did not know what treasure was
waiting to be found one bitterly cold morning in the library’s book return
bin. A tiny kitten, half frozen and
suffering from frostbite had been abandoned.
Dewey Readmore Books cuddled, pounced, and nudged his way into the
hearts of not just the local library staff but of the entire town and made
worldwide news.
I always have mixed feelings when reading animal
biographies. This was a heart-warming,
well-told story, but, as most animal biographies, has a bitter-sweet ending.
