Really good book. Stayed extremely engaged and read in a day. I woukd recomend however this wasnt my favorite book. Was a great story though! ( )

A continuation of James Bowen’s memoir that began in his popular book “A Street Cat Named Bob", this book focuses on the last year that James spent as a recovering person trying to make a living on the bitterly cold, frozen streets of London selling the magazine “The Big Issue” and playing guitar with his adopted cat Bob. It depicts the hand-to-mouth difficult existence of those times juxtaposed with the warmth James and Bob have together as a family, especially during the holidays. While a slight story, this is definitely a book that will delight fans of his previous books about his journey with his cat Bob and people who enjoy animal stories.

True story of how a cat taught a man to love. ( )

This was a wonderful story of Christmas spirit. I, of course, adore Bob, who shares a name with my kitty. I just wish my kitty was this nice. The story did not disappoint. The simplistic narrative looks back on James Bowen's prior Christmas experiences and why this was not one of his favorite holidays. It also shows how Bob helped James make friends who showed him what Christmas truly meant. A great, quick read for the holiday season. ( )
