The Nature Kid's Guide to Sloths: A Level 2 Reader for Curious Young Kids Who Love Sloths! (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798898181000)

What animal sleeps 15 hours a day, moves so slowly that algae grows on its fur, and can hold its breath longer than a dolphin?

Meet the sloth: the world's slowest mammal and one of its strangest. But here's what most people get wrong: sloths aren't lazy. They're masters of survival, and your young reader is about to learn their secrets.

"The Nature Kid's Guide to Sloths" will take your young reader on a journey high into the rainforest canopy where these upside-down acrobats spend almost their entire lives. Why do sloths only come down from trees once a week? How do their bodies digest leaves for an entire month? And what's the deal with those three-foot-long arms?

Written for Level 2 readers in short, engaging sentences, this book transforms "slow" into "fascinating." Your child will discover how baby sloths cling to their mothers for months, why sloths are surprisingly strong swimmers, and how their slowness is actually a brilliant survival strategy that's kept them alive for 64 million years.

The perfect book for kids who root for the underdog.

Some animals impress us with speed or strength. Sloths teach us something different: that sometimes the smartest move is to slow down. It's a lesson wrapped in fur, claws, and one of nature's goofiest smiles.

Thousands of young readers have explored the Nature Kids Guide series. Your young child is next.
