Slow Samson by Bethany Christou - ADVISABLE

Slow Samson by Bethany Christou
. PICTURE BOOK. Templar Books, 2019. $17. 9781536215472

 BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K, EL (K-3), EL - ADVISABLE 

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH

 Samson's friends have invited him to a party. Samson starts out in plenty of time, but no matter how fast he moves he can not make it to the party on time. Everyone likes Samson, he is friendly and kind and always willing to help his friends. Can Samson's friends figure out a way to make sure he arrives to a party on time?

 I loved the story of Samson and his friends. I liked the illustrations - the map showing where all the animals live and cute Samson. The story has some creative problems solving, too. I think students will love reading this book and that they will even ask for it. Sloths seem to be popular with children right now. Everywhere items with pictures of sloths are being sold. I recommend this cute book.
