About ‘The Barnabus Project’…

‘In a world built for Perfect Pets, half-mouse half-elephant Barnabus is a Failed Project who dreams of freedom. Shaun Tan meets “Toy Story”’ — The Bookseller

‘The Fan brothers sustain a beautiful metaphor, garlanded with dreamlike imagery that lingers in the memory long after the book has been closed.’ — The Financial Times

‘Illustrations full of warmth and an intricate attention to detail’ — The Huffington Post

…In a world where all toys are genetically engineered in labs and only “perfect” toys exist, Barnabus is a failed project: half mouse, half elephant, and kept out of sight of children with his other non-perfect pals. Barnabus just wants to be himself, not “perfect”, is that so bad? So he decides it’s time for him and the others to escape, and 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 finding where you truly belong will teach readers that perfection really means being true to yourself and your friends

About The Fan Brothers…
Terry, Eric & Devin Fan are brothers who collaborate artistically to produce gorgeous picture books. Terry and Eric started this tradition with their debut the celebrated The Night Gardener, which they wrote and illustrated together, followed by the similarly acclaimed Ocean Meets Sky. The Barnabus Project is the first book on which they are joined by their third brother, Devin. After a childhood spent exploring, mapping, building forts, and fighting epic acorn battles in the ravine by their home, they now live in Toronto, Canada, near the shores of Lake Ontario, which they like to imagine is the sea.
