Beschreibung
A girl wants a pet, but when she begs her mom for it, Mom says "only if it doesn't need to be walked or bathed or fed." Well, a bird won't do...nor will a bunny...and definitely not a trained seal. How about a sloth? They don't do ANYTHING! Sparky arrives by Express Mail. But he doesn't know how to fetch...or roll over. At least he's good at playing dead! But just how will he perform in the Trained Sloth Extravaganza?! Winner of the Charlotte Zolotow Award.
