Book excerpt: This touching sequel to the New York Times–bestselling, heartwarming true story A Street Cat Named Bob is “every bit as good as the first book” (Best Friends Magazine). As James Bowen struggles to adjust to his transformation from street musician to international celebrity, Bob is at his side, providing moments of intelligence, bravery, and humor and opening his human friend’s eyes to important truths about friendship, loyalty, trust—and the meaning of happiness. In the continuing tale of their life together, James shows the many ways in which Bob has been his protector and guardian angel through times of illness, hardship, even life-threatening danger. As they high-five together for their crowds of admirers, James knows that the tricks he’s taught Bob are nothing compared to the lessons he’s learned from his street-wise cat. Readers who fell in love with Dewey and Marley will be eager for this gift book presenting the next chapters in the life of James and Bob. “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) “This human-feline team has not lost any of its extraordinariness.” —Booklist (starred review) “A simple, heartwarming story of continued companionship and mutual trust and respect . . . sure to be another best-seller.” —Kirkus Reviews
