Three-Toed Sloths: Green Mammals

24 pp. | Bearport | January, 2010 | Library ISBN 978-1-936087-42-6 $22.61
(4) K-3 Disappearing Acts series. Three-toed sloths hang, hide, and slowly move through the rainforest. This slim volume describes their habitat, anatomy, and unique camouflage traits (such as growing algae on their fur) in simple, sometimes vague text. Lunis also touches on which animals hunt sloths and which are its nearest relatives (anteaters and armadillos). The glossy photos are the volume's most appealing element. Reading list. Glos., ind.
