Grand Central bought the book, currently titled Dewey, a Small Town, a Library and the World’s Most Beloved Cat on Monday by making an offer high enough to pre-emptively shut down an auction.S

“You can’t underestimate the market out there for people who love animals,� said Karen Kosztolnyik, the senior editor at Grand Central who will edit the book; co-authors will be Vicki Myron, the head librarian in Spencer, Iowa; and Bret Witter, a former editorial director at Health Communications, the publisher of the “Chicken Soup for the Soul� books.
