A wonderful book with lovely quotes about chilling out, the cutest pictures of sloths hanging around and lots of information about my favourite animals. Sloths are the perfect meditative companion and we could all learn a lot from them.
Alisha T, Reviewer
This is an enjoyable book of photographs, sloth facts, and inspirational quotes.
Sloths, of course, seem to take a very chill approach to life. They always look like they're smiling. They're never really in a hurry. Is it any wonder that people love them? This book is a reminder to, as the title says, slow down and smell the hibiscus.
I enjoyed the photos more than the inspirational quotes. The photos are just great; they're pretty relaxing and tend to lift one's mood. The inspirational quotes range from the truly thought-provoking to the cliche. The facts and trivia about sloths were interesting, and scattered through the book in just the right amount.
This would make a great addition to anyone's coffee table as a book to just flip through for a dose of happy!

The bar on animal cuteness gift books has now been raised to the highest of tree tops right where the sloth resides and seduces with the most satiated of satisfaction. A book of both slothfilled eye candy, and complementing tongue in cheek quotes plus some quiticential and little known sloth fun facts. This is the book everyone needs and we could all be bettered by being a bit more like a sloth.
