Sloth Stories

Imagine Don Freeman's Corduroy meets Bonnie Becker's The Christmas Crocodile in this character-driven, funny, and heartwarming holiday classic about a very special sloth.

In Sloth Finds His Perfect Tree, Sloth arrives at a Christmas tree "forest" in early December with a very important mission: find the perfect tree to call his home. Simple, right? Well, not exactly. All the beautiful trees are disappearing faster than Sloth can blink. Still—with a little persistence, a lot of heart, and more than a few hilarious mishaps, Sloth's journey is one you won't want to miss.

Stunning illustrations by award-winning artist, Claudia Gadotti, perfectly capture all of Sloth's big emotions—from his "I've got this, eventually" face to his "this is probably fine" look. You'll find yourself giggling and cheering Sloth on as he searches for "the perfect Christmas tree to call his home". Spoiler alert: Sloth does not have the fastest journey, but his patience pays off.

Sloth Finds His Perfect Tree is the first book in the Sloth Stories series by Christie Nicholls. Christie wrote the book after Sloth magically appeared in her home to help her family while she experienced a health crisis (yep, you read that right—Sloth just showed up like a fuzzy, slow-motion superhero). When things were tough, Sloth was always there, holding out his paw for support, helping them gain strength—and teaching them that even slow progress is still progress.
