Jeffrey has to write a story for homework and cannot think of anything to write about. So he begins to doodle on the page and soon as drawn a long-armed sloth who slips off the page and into his bedroom. While Jeffrey tries to concentrate on his story, the sloth informs him that he’s a lousy writer, because he doesn’t have any ideas, and suggests he ought to spend his time more profitably, namely by drawing things for the sloth’s comfort. The sloth is soon ensconced in a comfortable armchair with a puffy pillow, but when he demands a blanket, Jeffrey refuses to draw it. Instead, the boy starts writing about the sloth and discovers, to his amazement, that the sloth is compelled to do whatever Jeffrey writes!
Jeffrey and the Sloth is an interesting story about what fuels our imagination, and how that imagination can create characters and events that seem as real as the people and places around us.
