Description: FAST IS NOT A LADYBUG: A BOOK ABOUT THE MEANING OF FAST AND SLOWAuthor: MIRIAM SCHLEIN Illustrator: LEONARD KESSLERDespite its awkward title, the book does convey the differences of the comparative speeds of things. For example, a train is faster than a horse, who is faster than a dog, who is faster that a running kid.

Books can easily be combined and pack well together. Media mail is a very affordable rate offered by the USPS. Cost is based solely on weight and not on distance. If buying multiple books, please put them in your cart and then "request total from seller". I will then send you an invoice with an adjusted shipping cost. However, I have been told that if you are ordering from a phone, it may not be possible to request such a total. If that is your situation, please go ahead and pay the shipping as billed. Then, when I process your order, I will calculate the difference between shipping paid versus actual cost, and refund you any difference. Thanks for looking!
