HELLO, I'M A SLOTH
A clever, funny, and informational nonfiction picture book series narrated from the points of view of endangered animals, illustrated by a Caldecott Honoree. Say hello to these incredible animals and learn all about why they need protecting.
Did you know sloths only poop once a week?
Or that they can fall up to 100 feet without getting hurt?
They have hundreds of bugs living on them, including a species of moths that only lives on sloths!
And they move so slowly that algae grows on their fur, which - far from being gross - can actually help sloths by camouflaging them from predators.
Hayley Rocco is the author of Wild Places: The Life of Naturalist David Attenborough and How to Send a Hug, both illustrated by her husband, John Rocco. Before dedicating herself to writing for children full-time, Hayley worked as a publicist at several major publishers. Now armed with a pen, a journal, and her camera, she travels the world discovering stories of wild things and wild places.

John Rocco is the #1 New York Times bestselling author and illustrator of many acclaimed books for children, including Blackout, the recipient of a Caldecott Honor, and How We Got to the Moon, which received a Sibert Honor and was longlisted for the National Book Award. John happily follows Hayley into the wild in search of stories they can bring back and share with readers everywhere. Visit John online at roccoart.com and follow him on Instagram @roccoart.
