Hello, friend! This week, things are kind of noisy…

First, Exciting News about Ocean Adventure!

Here’s something to make noise about! Sloth and Manatee: Ocean Adventure is out as an e-book on Kindle, and to celebrate, two fabulous things are happening:

  • Today, September 9, to Wednesday, September 13th, the Paperback edition is 25% off!

Buy the Signed Paperback Here

  • AND, from Wednesday, September 13 to Sunday, September 17, the e-book edition will be FREE for Kindle! Super-duper!

Get the Kindle E-Book Here

I just love when people tell me they’ve shared this book, and read it to each other, and given it as a gift. It means so much, this is all about friends!



Sloth and Manatee and Friends is a free and public newsletter. Paid subscribers support this crazy project and ensure that it’s available for everyone, yes yes! Please consider subscribing, and sharing this nonsense with someone you like, and Thank You! It means so much. Magic Space Frog and the Distant Cow and Wise Rock thank you, too.


Sloth and (Moon)atee

When you are microscopic sometimes you have to get loud to get someone’s attention:


Speaking of fellows who make some serious sound:


Oh! And then there’s Elephants, who live in a whole world of sound that we can’t hear, but that can travel really really far, kinda like whales:


And finally,

No idea what’s going on here, but maybe they are all listening to something? What might that be? Perhaps they are at a concert. If so, who is/are the band/s?

Have a splendid week, and join us next time for more…


May you hear a message from afar, may a bird sing you a song, won’t you be my neighbor?

-Betsy

If you haven't seen it, Betsy, the New Yorker recently ran a piece on people seeing if they can use artificial intelligence to talk to whales...
