Description
Description
Fabulous art and a lovely story make this a standout picture book that celebrates differences and being oneself! Sloths are known for being slow, but not Stanley--he's always rushing from one thing to the next, driven on by adventure and curiosity. He's different from the other sloths, and happy to be so--though his dad worries. One day, when there is a fire in the forest, Stanley's speed helps to save the sloths, and he is finally accepted for who he is.
