This is a beautifully illustrated book that tells you everything you ever wanted to know about sloths. They have inhabited the Americas for 40 million years and the narrative switches back and forth between sloths of today and those of prehistoric times. It is fascinating to learn about their size, habitat, habits, how they survive. It surprised me to learn that they once had a presence in what is now the United States and there are some that were aquatic! I loved their physical comparison to a baked potato!
I think this would work best for families to read together or for middle grade students.
