Mindful Mr. Sloth is a beautifully illustrated story which reminds us to slow down and enjoy life as it is happening. The main character, Sasha, loves to stay busy but doesn’t find the time to appreciate the journeys she is speeding through. When she discovers an unlikely friend, Mr. Sloth, she finds that life can still be enjoyable at a slower speed! I appreciated this story’s central message as well as the accompanying illustrations. Estimated read-aloud time would be less than 10 minutes. As a pediatric speech-language pathologist, I think this book would be great for discussing mindfulness, patience, impulsivity, and/or rate of speech or actions with littles.

I received a free copy of this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

A wonderful children’s book with a relevant message about mindfulness! I love sloths & really enjoyed this book about Sasha, a kid who only has one speed – FAST – and what she learns upon meeting Mr. Sloth. A great message with lovely illustrations. Highly recommend for parents with children at home or as an addition to the classroom!
