New artwork on endpapers: 100 dogs = 200 unchanging loves

In late 2025, author Li Jinlun announced on social media that this book would be re-released. At the same time, she publicly sought stories of 100 dogs meeting their humans, which were then illustrated on the book's endpapers. A limited-edition "Meeting Poster" was also released for the first print run, featuring 50 new drawings + 50 (two designs, one randomly included per book).

Readers' fervent calls...
"It's been out of print for too long!"
"For 25 years, this book has always been my favorite."
"I've quietly collected many of Jinlun's books, from when I was single to reading them to my daughter, and my daughter loves them too."

The sweet life of a kind, gentle (and wealthy) lady with 100 dogs.
Big ones, small ones, ones with one ear missing, ones in wheelchairs, three-legged ones, lost ones who couldn't find their way home.
From "King" the Irish Wolfhound to the always-slow "Bingo,"
These dogs found happiness because they had names.
Every page turn brings you to group after group of dogs.
Reading this book slowly with your child is like spending time surrounded by dogs.

In 2001, after its publication in the UK and Taiwan, this book received widespread critical acclaim from readers and swept both domestic and international awards.
An adorable story based on true events, just reading the names of these 100 dogs will bring out wild and joyful expressions on children's faces.

"As I drew the dog portraits, my heart warmed up.
After twenty years, even if I wanted to draw dogs with the same brushstrokes, it seems I couldn't recapture that relaxed simplicity.
But I told myself, this is a gift that time has given me." — Author Li Jinlun
