All 3 books are in good/very good condition. More Friends Old and New has some staining at the top on the first few cover pages and there are a few other very minor stains or spots or creased pages throughout but mostly in good condition. The other 2 books have the school stamps on the inside cover and pages are mainly clean, crisp and ready to read! Roads to Follow is missing page 1 / 2 with some of the table of contents. I have wiped down the outside of these books.
