Does your child ever say, 'I can't do it'? This heartwarming jungle adventure helps children 3-9 swap self-doubt for self-belief, one small step at a time.
Sonny Sloth feels small and slow, and silly for wearing spectacles. He's afraid to race his faster friends in the upcoming Jungle Games, when he's sure he'll be the loser. At home, Sonny cries to his grandpa, who decides to share a secret. If the little sloth can find a special key, he'll be able to unlock his true potential.
Sonny sets off on a quest for the key. He swims along the misty river, climbs the jungle's tallest tree and battles his own fears along the way. He also meets three kind creatures, who give him some helpful advice. But as the sloth travels further from home, he still can't see what he's set out to find. Will Sonny discover the mysterious key? Can he unlock his true potential? And can the power of positivity help him win his race?
One Little Sloth's Big Boost! is an exciting storybook designed to empower its young audience. This engaging tale introduces children to the idea of self-perception, asks them to embrace their own unique qualities and encourages them to challenge their limiting beliefs. Readers will identify with Sonny Sloth and relate to the situations where he feels doubtful and afraid. They'll learn how thoughts and emotions can influence behaviours, and discover the power of perseverance, positive thinking and self-affirmation. With humorous characters and beautiful illustrations, children will be enchanted by this heartwarming story of self-discovery. And they'll take away an invaluable life lesson: that true confidence comes from within.
