  Summary: ""An international phenomenon" -Library Journal From the New York Times bestselling author of A Street Cat Named Bob comes an uplifting book of wisdom and advice from the most street-savvy cat of them all. In spring of 2007, street busker James Bowen found an injured orange tabby in the hallway of his shelter home in North London. Their friendship changed both of their lives and led to the internationally bestselling book A Street Cat Named Bob. But fame hasn't gone to James or Bob's heads. In Bob, James found a model for friendship, steadfastness, balance, and joy that we can all apply to our own lives. The Little Book of Bob is a heartfelt and wholesome book about how to be kinder to ourselves and kinder to the world around us. Cats are amazing creatures, as all animal lovers know. Tender and wise, this is a little book with a big heart"-- Provided by publisher.

In spring 2007, London street busker Bowen rescued an injured orange tabby, and the rest is the story of a beautiful friendship and an international phenomenon begun with A Street Cat Named Bob. Here, Bob has his say (so to speak) about caring, steadfastness, balance, and joy.
