Travelling with Mr Sloth

Join Mr Sloth and Freddie the Frog on a gentle, funny, and fact-filled journey across The Bahamas.
Mr Sloth may travel slowly, but that helps him notice wonderful details that others miss. In Book 65 of the Travelling with Mr Sloth series, he explores Nassau, Andros, Grand Bahama, Inagua, the Exuma Cays, Eleuthera, Abaco, island communities, blue holes, Caribbean pine forests, caves, mangroves, wetlands, coral reefs, seagrass beds, white and pink sand beaches, turquoise water, wildlife, and welcoming Bahamian communities.
Along the way, children learn about Bahamian geography, English and Bahamian Creole English, Nassau's art and history, contemporary island life, Junkanoo preparation, faith, ferries, lighthouses, farming, conservation science, marine habitats, wildlife safety, community teamwork, and environmental care. Mr Sloth makes a child-friendly island-habitat mobile, completes a Bahamas fact file, and collects a special Bahamas passport stamp for the Mr Sloth World Passport.
This warm educational travel adventure combines geography, culture, reading, creative activities, gentle faith, respectful community learning, science, art, conservation, and confidence-building. It is suitable for independent reading, shared family reading, classroom topic work, home education, school libraries, travel learning, and curious children who enjoy discovering the world.
