PRE-OWNED EMERGENCY ROOM PAPERBACK BY CAROLINE B COONEY SCHOLASTIC The book is pre-owned and has wear. It's still considered an"acceptable" book to sell EBAYS DEFINITION: Acceptable A book with obvious wear. May have some damage to the cover but integrity still intact. The binding may be slightly damaged but integrity is still intact. Possible writing in margins, possible underlining and highlighting of text, but no missing pages or anything that would compromise the legibility or understanding of the text. See the seller?s listing for full details and description of any imperfections. While there is obvious cover wear and folds in the corners, the binding is still tight and there are no pages with writings on them. The pages are browning from age, but overall the paperback is in good conidtion. So I probably could have listed as good but I like the buyer to be aware of flaws. Thanx for looking and check back often as we are always adding new and fun items. :D
