A follow-up to the international bestseller and multiple award-winning The Barnabus Project.

In a world of Perfect Pets, Barnaby is as perfect as they come. When he's brought home to be pampered and cared for by his very own little girl, life is just about perfect . . . until a new, even more perfect pet comes on the scene. Barnaby soon finds himself on a wild adventure through the city and on an emotional search for home. But with help from friends along the way, he discovers that you don't have to be perfect to find your place in the world and be loved. A stunning picture book from international bestsellers The Fan Brothers, joined by their brother Devin Fan.

This suspenseful, poignant and magical story will draw readers into a surreal, lushly detailed world in which perfection really means being true to yourself and your friends.
