Description
Theodore yearns to RACE, to EARN his wins, to prove his WORTH.
The only catch?
Well, he’s a sloth, the slowest mammal ON THIS EARTH.
But that can't stop a dream.
With determination, a few good friends and a touch of science, Theo sets out to overcome his obstacles.
Join him on his (two-toed) quest for athletic glory!
Theodore, The Sloth Who Wants to Race is a rhyming, read-aloud story about grit, friendship and a humorous approach to defying stereotypes. Educators and parents will also appreciate the fun, educational content at the end of the story, thanks to co-author Dr. Sam (a former veterinarian).
A Note From the Publisher
NetGalley reviewers, please note: The ARC for Theodore, The Sloth Who Wants to Race is a reduced-size PDF file, so the resolution is much lower than what the actual print (or Amazon kindle ebook).

I LOVED this book. It is a fantastic picture book in perfect verse that tackles determination, adversity, and friendship. Theo is a great main character. I loved the illustrations as well as the great rhyme. Plus the index of fun facts and super words in the back make it a great lesson book. Will be looking into buying it for my library!
