This is a children's picture book about aquatic creatures and insects. - Title: Kumon's First Picture Book - Illustrations: Bingo Aki - Theme: Fish, aquatic creatures, and insects - Back Cover: White back cover with illustrations of small creatures - Binding: Hardcover Thank you for looking. I read it with the cover on, so I don't think there are any major scratches on the cover, but there may be some minor scuffs. There is a small fold on the last page (see photo 6). Also, there is a mark on the inside of the cover where pencil scribbles were erased, so please check the photos (see photo 7). There is one spot where a blue print seems to have transferred (see photo 9). Otherwise, it is relatively clean. The cover has some tears, but I will send it with the cover on. Please let me know if you don't want it.
