About the Book
In this cute rhyming picture book told in few words, a sloth tumbles from a tree onto a road and hurts its toe. A helpful truck driver brings the sloth to a wildlife vet, and soon enough the sloth is returning to its wilderness home.Book Synopsis
Whoa, sloth, whoa!
A sloth is slowly making its way up a tree in its rainforest home when the wind knocks it loose and it tumbles onto the road. No, sloth, no! But luckily a truck driver stops, realizing the sloth has hurt its toe, and takes the sloth to the wildlife hospital. Sloth gets an x-ray and then some stitches before it's ready to head home. Let's go, sloth, let's go! Finally, the kindly truck driver rows it out to reunite with its family...though, in true sloth form, it will be rather slow to say goodbye.
