SLOTH STORYTIME 📚

There are so many awesome picture books published every year but not all of them work for library storytime.

When I attended the super fun launch of Sloths Love Parties 🥳 @roryhmatherauthor @binnyillustration at @quickbrownfoxbookshop last December — I knew this bright happy fun book would be perfect 🤗

- perfect length

- for ages 3-5

- perfect rhyme

- fun to read aloud

- super colourful, engaging illos

- surprise in the middle to keep the kids engaged

- perfect satisfying ending to bring energy levels down for craft

BOOKS I READ:

📘 Sloths Love to Party

📔The Sloth Who Came to Stay #margaretwild @vivienneto @allenandunwin

📗 If I Had a Sleepy Sloth @gabdaw38 @alexmaglalangbarrow @thamesandhudsonchildrens

Pics 2 and 3 — Inspired by MC @brentwilson How to Draw a Sloth launch worksheet we made party sloths with coloured card💡✏️✂️ (Pics used with parental permission)

PS I loved hearing how Rory believed in this book and despite many rejections finally found the perfect fit with @affirmpress 🤸🏿‍♂️
