Caio is a ten-year-old boy living in Guyana in South America. He loves soccer, his older brother Ricardo, and exploring the rainforest near where he lives. But most of all he loves his favorite animal: the two-toed sloth.

Sandy is just such a two-toed sloth, living in the forest near Caio. She's been separated from her family, and sad, scared, and alone. But when she meets Caio, she begins to feel hopeful. He's kind to her - not like the other humans she's seen in the forest, trapping other creatures and taking them away from their homes.

Diablo is a panther, powerful and huge, and he will not rest until all the poachers are out of his jungle, his kingdom, his home. But he poses a threat to more than just the poachers... The whole forest quivers in fear before him.

Find out what happens to Sandy, Daiblo and Caio, and how their stories intertwine in the first book in David Otis's new Sandy the Sloth series, Sandy the Sloth and the Danger of Diablo.
