Dewey Readmore To Be Topic Of Book

November 22, 2014

(Spencer)– Yet another chapter will be written about Dewey Readmore Books.

The 19-year-old cat, who became a mascot for Spencer’s Library, died last fall in the arms of librarian Vicki Myron.

Now, Myron has signed a million dollar book deal to write the story of Dewey’s life, how it intertwined with hers and the impact his life had on others.

Myron says the book probably won’t be published until spring 2008.

Myron found Dewey in the library’s book drop on a cold January morning in 1988.

He was named after the Dewey Decimal System, used in most libraries to catalog books. He died last November. He was cremated and his ashes were buried in the lawn in front of the library.
