Travelling with Mr Sloth

Join Mr Sloth and Pip the Parrot on a gentle, funny, and fact-filled journey through Spain.
Mr Sloth may travel slowly, but that helps him notice wonderful details that others miss. In Book 44 of the Travelling with Mr Sloth series, he explores Barcelona, admires the Sagrada Família, visits the Alhambra in Granada, discovers wildlife in the Doñana wetlands, explores Madrid, and looks across the mountain lakes and valleys of the Pyrenees.
Along the way, children learn about Spanish geography, wildlife, landscapes, food, architecture, language, music, dance, ceramics, and community life. Mr Sloth tries a careful walk along part of the Camino de Santiago, practises simple Spanish phrases, makes a repeating paper-tile pattern, completes a Spain fact file, and collects a special Spain passport stamp for the Mr Sloth World Passport.
This warm educational travel adventure combines geography, culture, reading, creative activities, and emotional confidence. It is suitable for independent reading, shared family reading, classroom topic work, home education, school libraries, travel learning, and curious children who enjoy discovering the world.
