Items related to Gift from Bob: How a Street Cat Helped One Man Learn...
In this poignant new story, A Gift from Bob, James Bowen recalls the last Christmas he was to spend on the streets, busking and selling the Big Issue with his cat Bob.
In 2010, the weather was as bleak as his prospects. Christmas had always been the time he dreaded. Now at least he had Bob by his side, but his health was poor, and he had no money for food or warmth. There was no choice but to venture out onto the frozen streets to earn enough to pay for his electricity and--with luck--to afford some small treats for Christmas as well.
What James learned through this toughest of times was to give his new life with Bob--and Christmas--a meaning it had never had before.

Review:
Book Description:
"Bowen, a London street musician turned bestselling author and YouTube sensation, shares how his life has changed since he took in an alley cat named Bob." --People
"A rich, moving story--perfect for cat lovers." --Kirkus
"Bowen's sequel to the international bestseller A Street Cat Named Bob is every bit as good as the first book...At it's core The World According to Bob is an age-old and simple lesson in the ways people and the animals who love them can work everyday miracles." --Best Friends Magazine
"This smartly balanced blend of humor, pathos, and humility makes Bowen such an engaging narrator, and it's no wonder the unlikely duo have inspired so many followers on Facebook as well as in real life. Bowen has crafted a terrific sequel to an amazing and inspiring story that's just beginning." --Publishers Weekly (starred review) on The World According to Bob
"The author's Street Cat Named Bob climbed onto the New York Times best-seller list as it touched the hearts of cat lovers...Now comes a sequel to that beguiling book, and this human-feline team has not lost any of its extraordinariness." --Booklist (starred review) on The World According to Bob
"A simple, heartwarming story of continued companionship and mutual trust and respect...sure to be another best-seller." --Kirkus Reviews on The World According to Bob
As Street Cat Bob and James spend a cold and challenging December on the streets together, James once more draws strength and inspiration from his extraordinary cat - learning important lessons about the true meaning of Christmas along the way.
