<p>Jacob Hewitt, from Kaurilands Primary School, west Auckland, has published three stories about the adventures of cats in his neighbourhood called The Agents of Meow.</p>
<p>He says he was inspired after listening to a family friend read an e-book and realising he could write his own.</p>
<p>&#8220;My friend Ben has a cat Dinty and I have a cat called Bobo and they are the main characters in the Agents of Meow,&#8221; says Jacob.</p>
<p>He donates $1 from the sale of each book to the SPCA, $100 so far, and has also set up an interactive website <a href="http://www.agentsofmeowclub.weebly.com" target="_blank">www.agentsofmeowclub.weebly.com</a> for fans of his books.</p>
