I Am Not a Sloth

Reach for this book when your child feels misunderstood, labeled by others, or pigeonholed by a single personality trait. If your child has been called shy, slow, or sensitive and seems to feel the weight of that definition, this story offers a gentle way to peel back those layers. It explores the concept of personality versus appearances through a rhythmic and humorous narrative about a sloth who is so much more than his name suggests. Designed for children aged 3 to 8, the book uses concrete examples to show that identity is complex and multifaceted. It encourages self-reflection and fosters empathy for others who might also be hiding a 'sparkling' inner world behind a quiet exterior. Parents will appreciate the supplementary appendix which provides a structured guide for deeper conversations about self-knowledge and social awareness.
