A Heartwarming Picture Book for Children Ages 0-10 SLUDGE is a curious and big-dreaming baby three-toed sloth who lives high in the lush treetops of the rainforest. While he longs for adventure and dreams of being famous, his mama wishes only for him to be safe and loved in their leafy home. When bulldozers rumble into the forest, tearing down the trees and turning their peaceful world upside down, the little sloth's dreams and his mama's worries collide. As their home is threatened, the little sloth discovers that there are helpers who can support both his wishes and those of his mama, and that being safe, loved and famous might be a possibility after all. SLUDGE is a gentle yet exciting tale that helps young readers understand that following one's prioritized values, listening to loved ones, showing kindness, and having a plan can result in the fame one desires. Bright illustrations and a story filled with heart will encourage children to cherish their families and believe in themselves. Perfect for bedtime reading or sharing in the classroom, this picture book invites children ages 0 to 10 into a colorful jungle where every little sloth can be a hero in their own way.
