    About this audiobook

    The new book from James and street cat Bob. 'One thing I've known about Bob from the very beginning is that he possesses a wisdom that is unusual, even in cats. In the decade since we met he's grown even wiser in my eyes. This book is a collection of the insights I've gained during my years with Bob.' In the spring of 2007, busker James Bowen came across an injured ginger tom cat in the hallway of his shelter in north London. What he didn't know was that this would be the start of a friendship that would turn both their lives around, and lead to A Street Cat Named Bob, the international bestseller that tells the story of their friendship. The Little Book of Bob is a collection of the wisdom James has learnt from Bob throughout the years, as they go through thick and thin together. From the power of friendship to staying calm and finding the joys in a simple life, let Bob be your guide on how to navigate the ins and outs of life like a wise street cat.

      I've read all the adult Street Cat Bob books so far, so of course I had to pick up the latest entry in the series, The Little Book of Bob. In this book, author James Bowen compiles all of the life lessons he's learned through hanging around with and observing his beloved ginger cat. The wisdom gathered in this selender volume is pretty much what one would expect from a cat: be present, be mindful, and be grateful for what you have. A quick read, but lacking the charm of the previous Bob books.
    • 3/5
      First I need to tell you that Bob is a cat. James found the injured ginger tom cat in a shelter in London. When James found Bob, he was making his money by playing music on the street and barely making ends meet. This is one in a series of books about Bob the cat and how he's helped James through his life. In this book, James shares little pearls of wisdom that he's learned from Bob - all things that we should know but it was an interesting way of presenting it.This is a fun little book to read through filled with wisdom - nothing too deep but things we should already know about life. If you are a real cat person, there is a whole series of books about Bob.
