A punctual sloth shows that true friendship is about being there on time.
Emilio the sloth may move slowly, but he's always on time for his friends. As he journeys through London, Emilio's impeccable manners and punctuality reveal the true essence of friendship. Will he make it to his scone date on time, or will his leisurely pace lead to unexpected adventures? Discover how Emilio's dedication to being present shows his friends how much they mean to him.
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Wrath and the Dawn comes a debut picture book about friendship, manners, and one very punctual sloth. Emilio Sloth may not be the fastest of animals, but he is always punctual for his friends. After all, it is the well-mannered thing to be. And Emilio is very fastidious about his manners, from his carefully timed arrivals to his perfectly tied cravat. On his way to meet his friend for scones, Emilio journeys through Westminster Abbey in London smelling the roses and treating everyone he meets with courtesy. But he never loses track of time because he knows showing up for friends is the best way of showing them how much they are loved.
