Because Slow Loris is extremely slow during the day, other zoo residents have no inkling of his nocturnal shenanigans. When the animals do find out about his "secret life," they quickly join in, and the following morning, everyone is slow. The bright colors in Loris's comical dress-up clothes contrast with the zoo's earth tones, and Deacon makes strategic use of foldout and lift-the-flap pages.
