She is a slow runner The verbs from the sentences one and three are been modified by the words "quickly" and "slowly"; then, they are adverbs. the words "slow" and "big" are qualifying the book and the girl; therefore, they are adjectives. There are adverbs of manner which tell us how something is/will be/was done. oftenly...
