At the Rainforest Rescue Center, Sloth loves when Patti comes to visit. But when Patti forgets her class report, it’s up to Sloth, with the help of his other (faster) rain-forest friends, to return Patti’s notebook to her — at school! Will they be able to find her among all the other kids in a new environment?

The first day of school can be scary — especially if you forget your summer assignment — but, Sloth, Peccary, Boa, Capuchin, and Ocelot overcome their fears and realize that what makes them unique is what helps them fit right in!  (From GoodReads.)
