I Love You More Than My Phone: A "Slothilda & Peanut" Comic Collection

by Dante Fabiero

A collection of comics about friendship and the mishaps of pet-parenting as told through the eyes of a sleepy sloth named Slothilda and her blissfully devoted corgi, Peanut.

Life with a stumpy legged fur-baby is an absolute joy, but it often comes with some hilarious challenges, especially when you're a phone-addicted, snack-loving, always-tired little sloth.

For Slothilda and Peanut, each with their own unique set of short-comings (literally and figuratively), navigating their way through the world can be a struggle. However, no obstacle is too great when they've got each other.

Genres: Graphic Novels, Comics, Humor, Animals, Adult, Nonfiction, Teen

128 pages, Hardcover

About the author

Dante Fabiero is an animator and author who spent his childhood living in Denver, Singapore, and Los Angeles.

After graduating from the University of Southern California, Fabiero landed his first job as an animator on "The Simpsons." Since then he has taken on multiple roles within the industry creating animation for TBS, Netflix, Fox, and YouTube.

In 2014 Fabiero started an online comic series about a sleepy little sloth named Slothilda. The comic's relatable subject matter resonated with readers around the world. So far Slothilda comics have garnered close to half a billion views on the popular GIF sharing platform, Giphy.

Fabiero lives in Los Angeles with his wife, K.C., and his pet corgi, Peanut. When he’s not working, Fabiero enjoys swimming, snowboarding, camping, and a few other things you’d never expect a sloth like him to do. However, he's most comfortable at home on the couch eating kettle chips while watching viral videos on YouTube.

I LOVE Solithilda and Peanut! This second comic collection is full of more adorable art, funny and relatable circumstances and just general cuteness! Slothilda collections will forever be auto-buys for me!

I received an early copy of this book from Edelweiss. This was very cute! I think I will pick up a finished copy because I feel like some comics were missing as there were words but no matching scenes.

[Anna · Rating 5 out of 5]

RATING 3.36 STARS

Cute and humorous enough.

[Ana · Rating 4 out of 5]

Definitely an homage to Peanut. Chuckled quite a number of times with stories that I thought were cuter and more clever than those in his first collection. Loved it!

[T.S.C. Lawrence · Rating 4 out of 5]

It's a cute quick read that cheers up even the baddest of days. What isn't there to love about cute animation and corgis??

[Marcela · Rating 4 out of 5]

As cute as the first book. That little Slothilda and her dog are adorable.

[Nadia | Mon Vàng Vàng · Rating 3 out of 5]

Actaul rating: 3.5/5 stars
This was so freaking CUTEEEEEEEE and I love it. Since the first book Slothilda: Living the Sloth Life which I read by this author, I imidiately fell in love with his drawing style. This book still gave that loveable style from the first book adding more normal life's stories living with Peanut - his adorable Corgi. After closing this book, I realized that I kept smiling while reading it and it truely gave me that happy vibe fulfilled.
So if you're a dog lover and currently feeling down, this one gonna be a definitely good pick.

This book is a cute collection of web cartoons by the author/animator Dante Fabiero. The main characters in the story is a little sloth named Slothilda (an amalgam of Fabiero & his wife) and a irrepressible corgi named Peanut (based directly on Fabiero's real-life corgi who is also named Peanut). These cartoons will strike a resonant chord with anyone who is fortunate enough to have a omnipresent furry sidekick of the canine persuasion. My dogs aren't corgis, but they would approve of Peanut:)

A collection of comics about Slothilda, her pet corgi Peanut, and the joys and eye-roll moments of pet ownership.

I thought the first collection of Slothilda comics was just so-so. I thought these were amazing. They were cute, funny, and totally nailed the pet/pet owner relationship. And it was good clean fun all ages can enjoy. Highly recommended to pet owners, dog lovers, and anyone who enjoys some animal comic fun.

I would like to thank Edelweiss and the publisher for an advance copy in exchange for an honest review. I read the first book in this series and loved it. The art is very cute and who doesn't love sloths and no sloths and dogs together! This book was very cute and I enjoyed it and look forward to reading more.

[Cathy · Rating 5 out of 5]

Unbelievably adorable. Every dog lover will relate. Beyond cute, he has a really great way of capturing the humor in daily life and frustrations. You'll definitely want to give it to every dog lover you know.

[Sadie-Jane Huff · Rating 5 out of 5]

The cuteness of the characters alone earn its own star.
My favourite dog has always been the corgi followed closely by the husky.
This book is so cute and 1 day, 1 day I will own my own corgi....
This made my Monday.

Such a cute graphic novel!!! I easily fell in love with this cute story from page one!!!

When I stumbled across this book at the library, I never would have guessed it would be so dang cute! A graphic novel about a cute little sloth and her dog that is beyond relatable-what more could you want?

[Thaz · Rating 5 out of 5]

To know that peanut has passed away still hurts 😭😭😭 This book is an ode to peanut and his wacky antics with its owner (part fiction, part true). I really enjoyed the illustrations and hope to see more works from this guy 🥳
