Think of it as a little "bargain book birthmark." Our bargain books come straight from publishers looking to clear out their extra inventory. To keep things organized, they sometimes add a small dot, line, or stamp on the book's edge to signal it's been discounted. Don't worry, it doesn't affect the story inside – it's just a little sign of a great deal!
