Remaindered Book
Throughout history, women have been told that they couldn't achieve their dreams, no matter how hard they tried. Women athletes have faced their own unique set of challenges, across countless sports and levels of play. In this third She Persisted book, Chelsea Clinton introduces readers to women who have excelled in their sports because of their persistence.
She Persisted in Sports is a book for everyone who has ever aimed for a goal and been told it wasn't theirs to hit, for everyone who has ever raced for a finish line that seemed all too far away, and for everyone who has ever felt small or unimportant while out on the field.
Alexandra Boiger's vibrant artwork accompanies this inspiring text that shows readers of all ages that, no matter what obstacles come their way, they have the power to persist and succeed.
This book features: Margaret Ives Abbott, Gertrude Ederle, Mildred "Babe" Didrikson Zaharias, Wilma Rudolph, Jean Driscoll, Mia Hamm (and the 1996 Olympic soccer team), Kristi Yamaguchi, Venus and Serena Williams, Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh Jennings, Diana Taurasi, Simone Biles, Ibtihaj Muhammad and Jocelyne and Monique Lamoureux.
Remaindered Books are books that were returned to the publisher from the booksellers across the world. When the book first enters the retail channel, the balance of unsold stock is retuned to the publishers for credit.
Remaindered books usually have black mark so they can't be returned or sold for the original price.
So... What's the Big Deal with Remainder Marks?
The mark is a dot of stripe across the top or bottom of the book on the outside of the pages. Remainder marks are no big deal if you are purchasing a book as a reading copy.
If you are purchasing the book for a collection or to re-sell, bear in mind that remaindere marks are considered to be a defect by most collectors, except in very rare cases
