Hello, I'm a Sloth (Meet the Wild Things, Book 1)

“Eye-opening facts and humorous questions pepper the friendly narration . . . Wows with unexpected details . . . A charismatic picture of its smiling subject, buoyed by interactive questions.” —Publishers Weekly

“Lovely pencil, watercolor, and digital illustrations . . . Back matter features additional facts, notes on the endangerment of each species, and organizations working to save them. Each title reads like a picture book, making a solid serial option for an informative, nature-inspired read aloud series” —Booklist

“Kicking off a series of basic encounters with threatened or endangered species, the Roccos wake a smiling brown-throated three-toed sloth from a nap so that it can describe its lifestyle in Mr. Rogers–style simplicity . . . A particularly absorbing overview.” —Kirkus Reviews

“First-person narratives from lovable endangered species encourage children to learn more. In each book, an animal introduces itself in a conversational way—the quokka’s fun energetic speech is especially endearing—and shares facts about its species. To keep readers engaged, each animal poses questions to children, such as the sloth asking ‘How often do you poop?’ or ‘Can you swim?’ Each narrative also explains the dangers the animals face and what people are doing to help them.” —School Library Journal
