Summary
The sequel to the bestselling A Street Cat Named Bob continues the remarkable adventures of James and Bob showing - through new stories - how Bob's extraordinary street wisdom has shown James the meaning of friendship, loyalty, trust - and happiness.
"Since Bob had appeared, I'd made huge strides in my life. For more than a decade I'd been a homeless drug addict. I'd been lost to the world and forgotten what was important in life. Now I'd got myself back on my two feet, but as I put the past behind me, I was still stepping unsteadily into the future. I still needed help in the right direction. Bob was always there to offer guidance and friendship."
James and his street cat Bob have been on a remarkable journey together. In the years since their story ended in the bestselling A Street Cat Named Bob James, with Bob's help, has begun to find his way back to the real world.

Absolutely wonderful
What did you like best about this story?
I enjoyed the humanity and mutual love between Bob and James. As a cat lover, there is a constancy of things that resonate. The main thing for me is the highlighting of human inhumanity to human while there is the unconditional mutual love between animal and human.
Which scene did you most enjoy?
Bob's intuition to illness was skilfully explored and spot on. One of my cat's has the ability to tune in on illnesses and it really resonated.
Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I laughed and cried a few times.
Any additional comments?
An incredible audiobook - great narration and I felt fully immersed in Bob and James's world. Sad it has finished!

Captivating
Loved this book as much as the first one! Really couldn't stop listening to it as I was so eager to hear every next chapter. I haven't enjoyed books as much as this one and "A street cat named Bob" since I was a child. So wonderful to be able to relax and listen.

Recommended for anyone who loves cats
What made the experience of listening to The World According to Bob the most enjoyable?
Having read the first book (a street cat named bob) i decided to give this one a try as i am new to audible i must admit the service is great., & i've been enjoying listening to this book where ever i am., bob is a really clever cat & very creative in getting attention from james., especially when bob's tummy rumbles, the adventures of bob & james is a real good heart warmer & shows the love between the two., during the day they both keep each other company while selling the big issue & the book shows how their life has developed for the better & i wish the author & bob the best christmas wishes & a very happy new year., can't wait for the next book i will definitely be reading/listening to it
