"Slowly, Slowly, Slowly," Said the Sloth

In a lush tropical rainforest, a sloth spends his days hanging quietly from a branch, moving only when necessary. When the other jungle animals tease him for his seemingly lazy pace, the sloth calmly explains the many benefits of his slow and peaceful existence. Eric Carle's bright collage illustrations bring the forest to life as the story delivers a gentle message about patience and contentment.
