Slow Loris

In the zoo, where Slow Loris lives, he's just, well, slow. Boring. It takes him ten minutes to eat a satsuma. An hour to scratch his bottom. Hardly the most exciting sight at the zoo. But Loris doesn't care. He has a secret...at night, when the rest of the zoo is sleeping...Slow Loris is a slow loris. In the wild, slow lorises spend their days sleeping in trees, their bodies rolled into tight balls. At night, they feed in the trees on insects, bird's eggs, small birds, shoots and fruit, seldom coming down to the ground.Alexis Deacon is the author of 'Slow Loris', published 2002 under ISBN 9781929132270 and ISBN 1929132271.
