"It's a book of stories," Dewey says. "Stories are the window to the soul." This is true for every life, every animal, and in this case, it's true for a cat. Dewey, believed to be the world's smallest library cat by some, disappeared from his hometown library in Clinton Township, Ohio at the age of 16. He was found dead on New Year's Eve after an apparent seizure but his story went viral and he became a beloved animal icon across the globe.

Dewey is an old black cat who became a sensation after he started spending time at the library. Dewey gets his name from the town's librarian, Miss Viola DeWitt, who adopts him after a few years of his staying around. He loves to pretend play with readers and entertain them by dancing and jumping on their laps. The story follows how Dewey helps people in need of books, especially children.
Dewey is a library cat in Oskaloosa, Iowa. When the new librarian arrives and Dewey pees on her shoes, his value as a library cat is quickly diminished. Despite this, he not only endures being tossed out of the library but becomes a full time employee after an incident with chewing on some books leaves him with an injured tail that needs to be amputated.
Dewey, the library cat at the Spencer Public Library, was in his element as he skulked through the stacks, sniffing out a hungry mouse or two and once even catching a rat by the tail. He also loved sleeping on piles of books and giving licks to visitors-until one day when he darted onto an unsteady branch above an imposing ladder.
Library cats have always been a favourite among the people who visit libraries. There is something about them that just makes people smile and want to grab their own cat to bring home. The story of Dewey, a library cat in the fictional town of Clinton, Iowa, is one that truly touched many lives over the years. It was the first children's book ever written by former librarian Vicki Myron back in 1973 and has since sold over 20 million copies worldwide.
