What is Slow Down Sally about?

Sally is always rushing. She hurries through every job, races from place to place and never stops to think about what might happen next. But when her speedy habits lead to a surprising muddle, Sally discovers that slowing down can be just as important as getting there first. With lively illustrations, simple language and a playful twist at the end, this cheerful early reader follows Sally as she learns to look more carefully at the world around her.
