Sloth lover Lucy Cooke welcomes you to Slothville. At the sloth sanctuary you'll meet two toed sloths, the Choloepus, and the three toed Bradypus. See the two headed sloth monster, Sunshine and Sammy! And get to know the tiny twin fashionistas, Violet and her brother Sebastian.

A cute overload on every page, you'll learn so much about these little known creatures. From their adorable looks to their sometimes lacking table manners, these sweeties will capture your attention cover to cover.

For a good laugh, join little Cosmo, who is learning how to use the sloth poo pole. Bath time at the sloth sanctuary finds Mateo and friends squeaky clean and hanging for a drip dry. Do you know what the best thing about drip drying a sloth is? Well, 'with slots there's no need for clothespins.'

This book sounds pretty cute, doesn't it? The journey through this adorably cute overload is filled with fun facts about our relaxed furry friends. The cuteness is not so syrupy-sweet that your teeth hurt and you can't continue reading, so fear not! You'll just want to find a cute sloth stuffie (aka stuffed animal) of your own to cuddle (please leave the real thing to live freely in the rainforests of South America).

This book is recommended for your reader aged five and up. However, I must recommend this as a stress busting smile of a read for adults as well! And before you get ready to hop into the sloth 'cuddle puddle', please pay heed to the warning on the back of the book ... sloths are indeed adorable and addicting!
