IN THE FOREST/Dans la forêt du paresseux

An interactive pop-up book that unfolds into an Amazonian rainforest, home to a sloth, threatened by deforestation. But maybe all is not lost…

 

A sloth is sleeping in a lush green forest. Can you see him? CLANG! Machines come to tear down the trees, but the sloth still sleeps … Will he wake up?
Turn the pages of this ingenious and elegant pop-up book, which tells the story of a lazy sloth who hangs on as the forest is destroyed and then reborn.

 

Deforestation is an unusual topic for the pop-up genre,(…) but readers should appreciate the elegant design, subtle details, and hopeful message.” Publishers weekly
