A Street Cat Named Bob

This book is about a guy named James Bowen. He lived a pretty normal life, like most of us would. He moved from Australia to London. He became homeless and was a heroin addict. Soon something changed his life completely. He found this Cat near where he lived and soon they became best friends. He decided to keep him and name him Bob. Soon James realized he had someone else to care of instead of himself so he had to work hard to feed Bob and himself. He works in this business called the Big Issue and everytime he would work there people ask him about Bob.

This book A Street Cat Named Bob by James Bowen teaches a really great lesson that I learned. Towards the end of the book he said “Everybody needs a break, everybody deserves that second chance. Bob and I had taken ours.” I think this quote from the book really teaches us a lesson. About how people should have a second chance in life. Many people might be struggling in life having a hard time. I think that people should have a second chance to betr their life situation or something good might happen to them like James. A street cat he decided to keep and name Bob reallly changed his life and how he had to work hard to take care of Bob and himself.
