Description
Fabulous art and a lovely story make this a standout picture book that celebrates differences and being oneself! Sloths are known for being slow, but not Stanley--he's always rushing from one thing to the next, driven on by adventure and curiosity. He's different from the other sloths, and happy to be so--though his dad worries. One day, when there is a fire in the forest, Stanley's speed helps to save the sloths, and he is finally accepted for who he is.

Giulia Pastorino lives in Genoa, Italy, and studied graphic design at the Academy of Fine Arts there. She also did a specialist course in Illustration at ISIA (Istituto Superiore delle Industrie Artistiche). Today her best friends are oil pastels and cream-colored backgrounds. She
loves warm colors, is not afraid to get dirty, and has never stopped drawing (and dancing).
