Jim wants to take another walk with you.

 For all those who have lost their beloved dogs...

The story of European comic master Schuiten and his beloved dog, Jim.
Once, the intimate interactions between every pet and its owner were like family...
Eventually, we must face saying "goodbye," a life lesson we must learn to experience.

"It's time for our walk, but you're nowhere to be seen.
You must be waiting for me somewhere..."

 Jim was a dog who accompanied cartoonist Schuiten day in and day out.
 Jim and Schuiten were inseparable; when he drew comics, Jim quietly stayed by his side.
 And the happiest time for them each day was their walks together.
　　
 Jim would chew furniture, Jim loved playing in water, and Jim insisted on going out every day, rain or shine.
 But Jim would accompany Schuiten to work, to friends' gatherings, and sleep by his bed every night.
 Jim lived with the cartoonist for thirteen years.

 When Jim passed away, the cartoonist couldn't help but miss him, drawing image after image of dogs in various poses.
 This book is a love letter from the cartoonist to Jim, allowing Jim to depart peacefully.
 This book is also for those who have had a dog companion; we know the beauty of having a dog by our side,
 and we also know that one day, dogs will leave us.
 Let us remember those moments of togetherness, so we can step out of the house and continue our walks.

"There will be moments of sadness, and there will be moments of joy."
