The author’s purpose of my book Perfect by Natasha Friend is to teach us that “Nobody’s Perfect.” People can look like they are Perfect but you never know what they have going on in their life or what has happened in their past. Also you never know if they have some horrible things going on in their lives. Just like in my book. Isabelle thought that Ashley Barnum was. Isabelle knew that there were horrible things going on in Ashley’s life but she still thought that her and her family was perfect. That is what the author wanted you to find out about this book.
