Small Packets international, via Canada Post, expressed in Canadian dollars (1 Canadian dollar = approx .66 US) :

For surface parcels over a pound and under 4.4 lbs to locations outside of North America, the Canadian post office's small packet rates are the least expensive. For heavier parcels, the US post office's M-Bag rate is the least expensive. For under a pound the US letter-post is least expensive.
A paperback without packaging will typically weigh under a pound ; a hardcover under 2 lbs. Packaging can add up to another pound to the parcel weight.
Surface parcels can spend over six weeks in transit.
