On the left side of the image, Ted stands smiling confidently in front of a suburban American house with a front fence, holding a white cane in one hand. He wears a peach/salmon-colored baseball cap worn forward over short dark hair, a white-and-blue horizontally striped short-sleeve t-shirt, and burnt-orange/rust-colored shorts, with bare feet. He has a cheerful, determined expression as he sets off on his journey. Cat peeks out from behind the fence on the right side of the house, with wide curious eyes, watching Ted as he heads out. The scene is set outdoors on a bright, sunny day with green bushes and a blue sky with white clouds behind the house. The right ~40% of the image is plain white background.

Ted grins and grabs his white cane. Cat looks at him from the fence.

On the right side of the image, Ted walks confidently forward with his eyes closed and a calm, content smile, holding a white cane out in front of him. He wears his peach/salmon-colored baseball cap, white-and-blue horizontally striped t-shirt, and burnt-orange/rust-colored shorts. Behind him, Kim walks with her arms slightly outstretched and a concerned, watchful expression, looking up at Ted as she follows. She wears her coral-red A-line dress with white polka dots and a pink bow in her side ponytail. Cat trots along behind Kim, looking alert and curious. The three are walking in a line across a plain, light outdoor ground with a clean white background.

Kim runs up fast. 'Ted, can I help?' Kim yells. Ted smiles and walks at a nice pace.

Page 3
On the left side of the image, Ted stands at a street corner with his eyes closed and head tilted upward, breathing in the air with a confident expression, holding his white cane. Behind and to his left, Kim follows with a surprised, wide-eyed expression and open mouth. The scene is set outdoors on a sunny day at an intersection, with buildings, a fence, and green bushes visible in the background. The right ~40% of the image is plain peach/tan background.

Ted stops and sniffs. 'I can tell the place to go,' he says.

Page 4
In the lower-center of the image, Ted is shown sniffing the air with his eyes closed and a proud, contented expression, with wavy scent lines rising from the direction of a nearby fish shop. Next to him, Kim smiles with eyes happily shut, also breathing in deeply and enjoying the fishy aroma. To the right, a fish shop worker is shown holding a bowl of fish. The characters are depicted in circular/rounded vignette-style frames arranged across the bottom half of the image. Along the left edge, a suburban street scene with buildings and green hillside is partially visible, while the top half remains open white background. Small playful doodle-like figures of cats and children are scattered between the vignettes.

Ted sniffs once, and Kim sniffs twice. 'Fish!' says Kim with a grin.

Page 5
On the left side of the image, Ted stands facing a large dark cobblestone wall, smiling with his eyes closed as he reaches out with one hand to touch its rough stone surface, holding his white cane in his other hand. Kim stands just behind and to the left of Ted, looking up at him with a curious, slightly concerned expression. Cat is perched on top of the stone wall, peering down at Ted keenly with wide eyes. The scene is set outdoors on a sunny day along a small-town street, with shops and buildings with colorful rooftops visible in the background to the far left. The right ~40% of the image is plain white background.

Ted pats the stone wall. 'I have felt this wall since I was small,' he says. Cat looks on from the top.

Page 6
In the lower half of the image, Kim leans forward near the edge of a large puddle with a worried, fearful expression, one arm outstretched pointing at the puddle as she warns Ted. Ted walks calmly around the far side of the puddle with his eyes closed and a confident smile, his white cane sweeping ahead of him, his feet completely dry. The scene is set outdoors on a dirt path beside a stone wall, with a fence and bushes visible in the background. The top half of the image is open sky with soft clouds, leaving clear space for text.

'Stop, Ted! A big wet spot!' Kim yells. But Ted steps past it with grace, and he is not wet.

Page 7
On the right side of the image, Ted stands proudly tapping his white cane on the ground, with a confident smile on his face. Kim stands beside him, looking at him with a wide-eyed, impressed expression and a big smile. They are on a sandy outdoor path near a body of water visible at the bottom-right edge. Behind them are colorful structures — a striped purple-and-white fence or wall and green and purple panels, suggesting they are approaching a neighborhood or party venue. The left portion of the image is mostly open background.

Tap, tap! 'My cane can tell me where the wet spot is,' says Ted. 'That is so ace!' says Kim.

Page 8
On the left side of the image, Ted and Kim stand on a sidewalk in front of a fence and gate. Kim is in the foreground, looking alarmed with wide eyes and a fearful expression, one arm extended protectively as she shouts a warning. Ted stands just behind Kim, eyes closed and smiling calmly, appearing completely unfazed. Cat is perched on top of the fence post above, looking down at the scene with a startled expression, having leapt up in surprise. A large brown dog pokes its head through the gate, mouth open and barking energetically. The right ~40% of the image is plain muted purple background.

Ruff, ruff! A big dog yaps at the gate, and Cat hops up on the fence. 'Look, Ted!' Kim yells, but Ted just grins.

Page 9
On the right side of the image, Ted and Kim are walking together along a suburban neighborhood street, with houses, power lines, trees, and a small market stall with colorful balloons visible in the background. Above them in a large thought-bubble cloud, three stylized sensory icons float — depicting a barking dog, musical notes, and other neighborhood sounds — representing the sounds Ted uses to navigate. Ted walks smiling confidently, while Kim looks at him with a bright, impressed expression, gesturing as she speaks.

Kim takes a glance at Ted and grins. Smells and taps tell Ted the path!

Page 10
On the left side of the image, Ted walks confidently forward holding his white blind persons cane out in front of him, eyes closed and smiling contentedly, while Kim walks beside him on his left, looking up at him with wide eyes full of happiness and her hands raised in delight, an excited open-mouth grin on her face. They are on a suburban American sidewalk with a power line pole, houses, and buildings visible in the background. Cat walks along the path near them, and a few children can be seen walking in the background behind them.

Ted stops and sniffs. 'Cake!' he says. 'We have a chance to get a big slice!'

Page 11
On the right side of the image, Ted, Kim, and Cat stand in front of a house decorated with colorful balloons, streamers, and bunting for a party. Ted is standing and smiling warmly, holding a wrapped gift box. Kim stands nearby with a joyful, excited expression, looking toward the decorated entrance. Cat is visible among the group, also facing the party venue with an eager posture. The scene is set outdoors on a bright day in a suburban American neighborhood, with green trees and a wooden fence flanking the festively decorated house. Several other children are visible near the entrance and around the party venue.

This is the place! Kim jumps and wants to dance. Ted has a gift box, and Cat sits with them.

Page 12
On the left side of the image, Ted and Kim sit at a long table with several friends at an indoor party. The table is laden with food including cake, fruit, and various dishes. Ted sits grinning broadly with eyes closed contentedly, wearing a party hat. Kim sits in the foreground on the right side of the table, smiling warmly. Three friends sit along the table between them, all wearing party hats and looking happy. Colorful paper streamers and bunting hang from the ceiling above. The right ~40% of the image is plain olive/sage background.

Ted and Kim sit with their pals and have cake. 'This is so nice,' says Kim. Ted grins and has a big slice.
