Baby Sloth

by Aubrey Lang

Book Overview

A Nature Babies title.

High in the thick mangrove trees, a baby sloth clings to his mother. As he grows, the young sloth learns what leaves are best to eat, and where to climb the treetops to bask in the sunshine after frequent rains. But the sleepy sloth never leaves the safety of the trees. It isn't until his mother finally deserts him that the lonely young sloth must discover the world below all by himself.

Educational and beautiful

This book is an excellent introduction to the gentle life of a sloth. The photos are beautiful and the text talks about the daily life of a sloth, when the baby leaves its mother, what sloths eat, who eats sloths, etc. The language is simple enough to engage my 3-year old and my 5-year old at the same time. There is also a one-page section with extra facts for the parents you can use to answer questions or to give more information.
