Sloth sleeps a lot. His favorite thing to do is to take a nice, peaceful nap. But the other jungle animals are very busy and very noisy, too. Kangaroo is always jumping on her trampoline; Elephant is always lifting weights. However, Monkey finds out the hard way that he’s no good at lifting weights, and Elephant can’t jump on the trampoline very well. The animals learn that everyone does something best--and Sloth’s best talent is sleeping!
Andrew Murray is a children's writer who lives in London, and works in a bookshop which has its very own Moon Rocket. His friends think he has too many weird ideas and eats too much cheese. Andrew likes stormy nights, and books about long ago and faraway places.
