What if your perfect pet preferred to take things very, very slowly? If I Had a Sleepy Sloth is a delightfully funny and imaginative story about a little girl who dreams of having an adorably sleepy sloth as her very own companion.

Life with a sloth would mean slowing down for extra-long morning walks, discovering some rather surprising things hiding in its fur, and watching those super-grippy claws work their magic on the jungle gym and in the treetops. Through every silly adventure, little readers are invited to imagine what the world might look like when there’s no need to hurry.

Filled with vibrant illustrations, playful rhymes, and laugh-out-loud moments, this charming addition to the If I Had a…series is a sweet celebration of imagination—and a gentle reminder that sometimes it’s nice to slow down and enjoy the moment.
