I usually read for half an hour, so I try to build in a couple of easy activities to help the kids refocus between books. Here are three of my favorites, which I learned from a Library Explorers camp we offered two summers ago:

Tell the kids to close their eyes, and take a deep breath in, stretching their arms out to either side and then up over their heads. As they raise their arms, they should imagine a big bubble around their heads that is filled with their favorite color. When their arms are just above their heads, tell them to clap their hands together, and imagine the color spilling down all over them. Repeat two or three times.

Repeat for each finger of your left hand, breathing in each time you run your index finger up the right side, holding your breath for three counts (or longer if you like), then breathing out as your run your index finger down the left side. If you want to extend the activity, you can switch hands.

Second graders are the perfect audience for this book, which asks the kids to guess the answer to a rhyming riddle, accompanied by the silhouette of the person or thing in question. At first, the riddles seem so easy that even a preschooler could guess them, but the answers are always surprising, and hilarious!

One of my favorite types of books to share and talk about with second graders are folk tales. We discuss how folk tales are stories that are so old that no one knows who originally created them, and how people create their own versions over time. In this fun retelling of an Iroquois (Haudenosaunee) folk tale, Rabbit decides to make it snow in the summertime by playing his magic drum, and singing his snow song. The kids love to join in on the chanting and singing.

I guess you can say it's fair at best, but qualified grades seems to be the way of the future and if it presents wonderfully and is a key book, it'll sell for higher values than the actual technical grade.

Personally, if I had the choice between a Mint book in every other respect except one has a 1/2 inch color breaking crease on the fc, and the other has a cut coupon, I would prefer the latter any day of the week.

A coupon clipped from the cover will be graded more harshly than from a page. It seems really hard to nail down what grade a collector or CGC will give. One thing to keep in mind is the condition of the book overall. In the end most buyers look at the actual defects than the grade and decide if they want to collect it or not. For some people the primary concern is how the cover presents. Also some books are prone to missing coupons and I think that factors in as well. I think the most common results from CGC is either up to a 1.8 in blue or the sky is the limit in green. I did see one that doesn't fit the norm but it's possible CGC mis-labeled it.

Like Farmboy said, "the condition of the book overall," should be the primary concern, side-by-side with cost. I agree with porcupine, unless it's encased with a qualified label, I think it's reasonable to pay no more than Good price for run-of-the-mill stuff like 70s Marvel books missing their value stamp. I think paying a grade under a qualified label is also reasonable.

It seems to me that CGC uses the term "incomplete" to denote the book itself is incomplete, not considering whether it affects art or story. They do note on the label if something affects art and story, though. But I've seen it say "incomplete" in both cases.

Don't have any CGC books with a coupon clipped or piece missing inside, though have one with a piece off the cover, which is blue label. The impact to grade might depend upon the book's grade too - can't imagine a 9.0 with coupon clipped.

I did find an example on ComicLink (current listing), where a piece is missing, but did not appear to affect grade. Unclear how large the missing piece is, but it does affect the story. Maybe books under 6.0 are less impacted grading-wise, than books over 6.0.

Label reads: Large piece out on 36th and 37th page, affects story. This is an old label, so not sure if same grading criteria is still in use. Unsure if it's okay to "borrow" an imagine from CL, so here's a link.

An entire missing ad page would bother me a lot more--I recently passed on a Spidey #3 that was on Ebay that looked like a solid 4.5 but had that defect. The BIN price was only $250 which is about 75% of a Gd. But I knew that an entire missing page would gnaw at me forever. Would have definitely grabbed it if it was only a clipped coupon.
