[The first passage is carefully written in common, each letter seeming carefully written on the inside of the front cover. The rest of the book looks written by a completely different author.]
My Sweet Dart,
Sometimes I wonder if others blink out of existence when I'm not looking, sometimes old friends blink out of my mind as well...I hope this book prevents me from you doing the same to me.

[The next few pages, before the first bookmark and covered in ink and inkstained paw prints, seem to have depictions of critters without faces or blurred faces, and poorly scribbled notes on their defining features apart from their facial features. A depiction of fish stamps one of the final page before the first bookmark.]
