Your pet, bound, as the hero of a real storybook.

A hardcover storybook where your pet is the named protagonist. Illustrated illustrated for this one book, matte-printed, with a colophon at the back.

They print your pet in a costume. We bind your pet into a story.

You know the kind of thing we mean. The renaissance portrait on canvas. The royal print in a gilt frame. The astronaut shirt, the knight mug, the king-and-queen pair you ordered for the anniversary. You bought it because you wanted somebody to confirm what the household already knew — that the dog, the cat, the rabbit, is in some real way the protagonist of your daily life. The costume is the first draft of that idea. The book is the finished one.

What your pet has not been given, by anyone else, is an actual story. A bound, hardcover, matte-printed book about a thirty-two-page adventure they are at the centre of. Their name on the spine. Their breed honestly rendered. The nicknames the household uses for them woven into the prose. A narrative arc that resolves. This is the object you have, without knowing it, been looking for.

What "your pet as the hero" actually looks like in the press's hands.

You tell us the pet's name and four details: a habit, a nickname, a small repeated noise, the thing they do that nobody outside the household believes. Juno writes the story — an adventure scaled to the pet, named, with a beginning and an end, with the household's specific language in it. The book is illustrated for this one book. The book is hardcover, with a colophon at the back, in a plain box.

The adventure is real, in the sense that all good stories are real — it borrows from the pet's actual life, exaggerates one habit into a quest, and gives the household's private vocabulary the weight of a published book. They become the hero the way every household's pet is already the hero — named, specific, on the page in long sentences.

Eighty-five dollars. One edition. One named hero.

The brief takes ten minutes. The book takes roughly two weeks. It arrives in a plain box. There is one copy and there will only ever be one copy. The hero of the book is in the room, asleep on the rug, while you read the cover out loud for the first time.
