Description

Sloth Gets Busy offers a gentle introduction to the concept of joining in and helping others for young children.

Sloth is very lazy. He just can't be bothered to clean up after himself or help out at home. At school, he is too lazy to take care with his work or join in with games. Can Sloth learn that helping others and being busy can be fun?

This funny, charming story is the perfect way to introduce young children to the idea of being involved and the importance of helping others and being responsible. Also included are suggestions for activities and ideas to talk through together to help children understand their behaviour.

The Behaviour Matters series of picture books provide a gentle means of discussing emotions, boosting self-esteem and reinforcing good behaviour. Supports the Personal, Social and Emotional Development Area of Learning in the Early Years Foundation Stage, and is also suitable for use with children in KS1 and can be used to discuss values. Suitable for children age 3+.

'Excellent for sharing and encouraging discussion... we can all learn from the approach taken in this series.' Parents in Touch

She writes fiction and non-fiction, plays and poetry across the age ranges. Sue loves reading all sorts of books and is at her happiest when she has a book in her hand. She also loves painting in watercolours, playing tennis and badminton and going for long walks in the country with her husband and children. Illustrator and musician Trevor Dunton has loved drawing animals since he was in short trousers. OK, he was wearing short trousers yesterday, but it was a warm day and anyway, it's a figure of speech. A keen tennis player and apiarist, if he isn't hitting the fluff of a ball, he can generally be found in a field in Kent serenading his bees.
