The Barnabus Project

內容簡介

內容簡介 做自己 找到屬於自己的地方 在一個以基因工程、客製化打造專屬於孩子完美寵物的工廠裡，有一個神秘的實驗室，待在裡面的，不是上得了檯面的完美寵物，而是計畫的失敗品，Barnabus就是其中之一。牠有大象的長鼻子，卻有老鼠般的身形和尾巴。牠一直待在實驗瓶裡，從沒看過外面的世界。牠的夢想，就是希望離開瓶子，看看好朋友蟑螂描述的綠地、樹和各式各樣的高聳雲端的建築物。但是，動作得快一點，因為這些計劃的失敗品即將被回收，再製成絨毛娃娃。但Barnabus可不想變成絨毛娃娃。牠想找到一個可以做自己，而別人也接納牠的地方。 In a world built for Perfect Pets, Barnabus is a Failed Project, half mouse, half elephant, kept out of sight until his dreams of freedom lead him and his misfit friends on a perilous adventure. A stunning picture book from international bestsellers The Fan Brothers, joined by their brother Devin Fan. Deep underground beneath Perfect Pets, where children can buy genetically engineered "perfect" creatures, there is a secret lab. Barnabus and his friends live in this lab, but none of them is perfect. They are all Failed Projects. Barnabus has never been outside his tiny bell jar, yet he dreams of one day seeing the world above ground that his pal Pip the cockroach has told him about: a world with green hills and trees, and buildings that reach all the way to the sky, lit with their own stars. But Barnabus may have to reach the outside world sooner than he thought, because the Green Rubber Suits are about to recycle all Failed Projects . . . and Barnabus doesn't want to be made into a fluffier pet with bigger eyes. He just wants to be himself. So he decides it's time for he and the others to escape. With his little trunk and a lot of cooperation and courage, Barnabus sets out to find freedom - and a place where he and his friends can finally be accepted for who they are. This suspenseful, poignant and magical story about following your dreams and finding where you truly belong will draw readers into a surreal, lushly detailed world in which perfection really means being true to yourself and your friends.
