Description
Say hello to a sloth, and learn all about this incredible endangered species--and why they need protecting--in this clever, funny, and informative nonfiction picture book, illustrated by a Caldecott Honoree. Did you know sloths only poop once a week ? Or that they can fall up to 100 feet without getting hurt? They have hundreds of bugs living on them, including a species of moths that only lives on sloths! And they move so slowly that algae grows on their fur, which--far from being gross--can actually help sloths by camouflaging them from predators. Chock-full of amazing, kid-friendly facts and inviting artwork from the #1 New York Times bestselling illustrator of Blackout , the Meet the Wild Things series introduces young readers to endangered animals from around the globe, told from the points of view of the animals themselves.
