Key Selling Points

• A sloth falls from a tree onto the road, where a kindly truck driver takes it to a vet so it can be patched up and returned to its home.
• Told entirely in short rhyming sentences (such as "Your toe, sloth, your toe!" and "Let's go, sloth, let's go!") this story makes a wonderful read-aloud and a great book for beginning readers to learn along with.
• Go, Sloth, Go! emphasizes how important it is to help out when someone gets hurt, and shows a trip to the vet clinic (including an x-ray and stitches) in a friendly, unthreatening light, for any readers nervous about the doctor's office.
• Uses a light, age-appropriate tone to show how human incursion on wildlife habitats puts animals at risk—but also how humans can do their part to help.
• Sophie Benmouyal's bright, beautiful artwork evokes the colorful rainforest ecosystem, complete with monkeys and parrots, and pairs perfectly with Gabrielle Prendergast's whimsical, humorous text.
