Dewey won hearts and proved to everyone he encountered that unconditional love comes in many forms.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
Vicky Myron grew up on a family farm in northwest Iowa. She began as an assistant librarian at the Spencer library. Within a few years, she was promoted to director of the library.
As a single mother, Vicky worked towards a masters degree for librarians during weekends and nights. It was then that she met Dewey, who made his home at the library and kept her company late nights while she studied.
Before retiring from the library, Vicki had worked at the Spencer Library for over 25 years.
