Because we need to select 4 book with different titles.
Now, Let's see who all are coming at low prices :
1. Saving Fish from Drowning : 2.63
2. Curious George Goes Fishing : 2.98
3. Curious George at the Aquarium : 3.99
Can we select Saving Fish from Drowning selling at 7.98 ? No, right! As we need book with distinct titles.
So, the next cheapest book would be either Fish or, Salmon selling at 9.98.
Total would be 2.63 + 2.98 + 3.99 + 9.98 > 18
Hence the answer would be NO
