Deep in the basement of the Perfect Pets company, where children can buy genetically modified, "perfect" pets, is a secret laboratory. Barnabas and his friends live there, but none of them are perfect. They are all Failed Tests... Barnabus has never been outside his glass, but he dreams that one day he will see the outside world described to him by his friend Pip the Cockroach: a world of green hills and trees, with buildings that reach high into the sky and are lit by their own stars. But Barnabus might have to go out into the outside world sooner than he thought, because the Green Rubber Suits are getting ready to recycle all the Failed Tests... And Barnabus doesn't want to be turned into a fluffier animal with bigger eyes. He just wants to be himself. So, he decides that the time has come for him and his friends to escape. So he embarks on an adventure to find freedom – and a place where he and his friends will finally be accepted.
