(3) K-3 Illustrated by Gerald Kelley. Springing from the true story of how London street performer James Bowen found, healed, and bonded with street cat Bob, this book presents one possible backstory for the orange kitty. Handsome cat's-eye-view paintings follow Bob from bewildered, hungry, and frightened to happy and in safe company, proudly wearing his now-signature scarves. A photo collage of the real Bob and James is included.
