Default How to add additional description in a cell to a spreadsheet?

I am not sure if this is possible, but I would like to know if I can apply
additional information in a single cell. For example, I am creating a list
of books for a library and I would like to add information to the title of a
book. If a person takes their mouse and hovers over the title, I want them
to see a description content of the book. Can this be done?

I am using Microsoft Office 2003.

Thank you,
Judy

You may decide that using an adjacent cell is easier to do and easier to read.
