Michael Zanetti announces the release of 'The Sloth and His Friends'

FAIRFIELD, Conn., March 21, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Michael Zanetti announces his entry to the publishing scene with the release of "The Sloth and His Friends" (published by Archway Publishing), a fun, heartwarming story about a sloth that teaches kids about the Amazon rainforest and its rich diversity of life.

Sal the sloth lives a rather dull life in the rainforest canopy. Although Sal has lofty goals, he struggles with his "slothfulness." While his animal friends run, jump or fly around, Sal can barely make it to the top of his tree. Meanwhile, rainforest life is disturbed when a logging company begins clear-cutting trees and burning brush near Sal's home. What will Sal and his friends do? How will they survive? Will nature-loving humans come to their aid?

"This book is quirky, funny, and unique and a lot of young people like sloths. Even though it is about a sloth, it is rather fast-paced and exciting. There is an element of danger because a wildfire threatens to destroy millions of acres of forest," Zanetti says.

When asked what he wants readers to take away from the book, he answered, "I want readers to have a good time. I want them to laugh. I want them to cry. I want them to forget that they are reading. That is when I know I am reading a good book -- when I am lost in another world."
