The returned book
At the library desk, I opened a book that had just been returned. Its blue cover was bent backwards, and one corner was torn. The title could still be read clearly, and every page was present. I placed the book in the repair tray before serving the next reader.
Select one word or phrase from the passage that shows that the cover was damaged.
