A Spot to Nap (VC/CV syllable division)
Licensed under CC BY 4.0.
A sloth moves slowly, but they still get worn out. This one needs a nap. It is time to find a spot to curl up.
It has found a good tree. The tree is tall and has a lot of branches on it. There will be a spot to nap for sure.
Hmmm. Is this the right spot? It has a good curve to it. The sloth can cling on tight as it sleeps all night long.
Oh! This spot was not free. The sloth has green moss on its fur. The giraffe thought it was leaves. The poor sloth got bitten. Up you go, sloth. Find a new spot.
How about this spot? There are no giraffes here. This seems like the perfect spot to hunker down for a good nap.
Oh! There is a hive of bees next to this spot! This will not do at all. You will get stung all over if you nap here, sloth.
I do not think that is a good spot, sloth. I can see a tail on the branch. I think it might be a...
Oh no! That poor snake. Let it go. It was just trying to have a nap as well. Keep on up the tree, sloth. This is not the spot.
This might be it. A bird has the branch above, but the branch under it looks free. Your eyes are nearly shut, sloth. You need a spot now!
Oh... I do not think you will get good sleep like that, sloth. That bird will keep you up. It will caw the whole time.
It was a long way to the top of the tree, but you found a spot! Good job, sloth. Now I will leave you be so that you can nap.
This tree is all full for the night. If there are more critters that want to find a spot to nap, they will have to move on.
