Score One for the Sloths

(2) K-3 Illustrated by Lynn Munsinger. True to their nature, the sloths at Sleepy Valley Sloth School spend most of their time yawning and dozing. When a boar representing the Society for Organizing Sameness berates the students for their low grades, an energetic new classmate named Sparky saves the day by cleverly exploiting the students' natural tendencies. The gentle story, enhanced by Munsinger's humorous illustrations, makes perfect bedtime reading.
