Synopsis
Lazing in his tree one sunny day, a laid-back sloth decides to buy an ice-cream from a passing cart. But his leisurely pace proves to be a big problem, as he can’t seem to taste his refreshing treat quick enough before it melts. Luckily for him, the ice-cream selling bird hatches a genius plan for him to enjoy his dessert without exerting himself too much!
