This is a set of 5 books as shown in the photo (^^) There are some folds and crayon marks on the front and back covers. I have checked them thoroughly and believe there are no tears, but I apologize if I missed anything. There is a name written on them, but I will ship them as is without erasing it. I am selling them at a low price, so please purchase only if you understand that they are used children's books m(_ _)m
