Description
Whoa, sloth, whoa!
A sloth is slowly making its way up a tree in its rainforest home when the wind knocks it loose and it tumbles onto the road. No, sloth, no! But luckily a truck driver stops, realizing the sloth has hurt its toe, and takes the sloth to the wildlife hospital. Sloth gets an x-ray and then some stitches before it's ready to head home. Let's go, sloth, let's go! Finally, the kindly truck driver rows it out to reunite with its family...though, in true sloth form, it will be rather slow to say goodbye.

Sophie Benmouyal is a freelance illustrator based in Montreal, Canada. After working as a graphic designer for a few years, she decided to pursue her dream of becoming a freelance children’s book illustrator. From her home studio, she likes to explore colors and textures while experimenting with different techniques. Her two full-of-life little girls are her main source of inspiration by reminding her daily of the importance of dreams and play. They are also an excellent excuse for her compulsive children's book buying.
