During a redirect examination of Penguin Random House VP Sally Franklin, prosecutors introduced as evidence additional portions from "Trump: How to Get Rich" to highlight Trump's role in writing the book.

"That's what I decided to call it, because whenever I meet people, that's usually what they want to know from me," Trump wrote in "How to Get Rich." "You ask a baker how he makes bread. You ask a billionaire how he makes money."

Franklin also read from the acknowledgements of the book, where Trump thanks his coauthor and editor for knowing him so well -- and the epitaph where Trump quoted his mother.

In court and in filings, defense lawyers have highlighted Trump's minimal role in drafting the books compared to his ghostwriters.

Penguin Random House VP Sally Franklin continued reading quotes from another Trump book, intended by prosecutors to show in Trump's own words how he allegedly handles his finances.

"I always try to read my bills to make sure I'm not being over charged," an excerpt said.

"Periodically I ask my financial department for what I call my financial small shot," one book read. "If i didn't check up on it regularly, I would be in big financial trouble."

"And I would have no one to blame but myself," the book said.

Jurors appeared engaged as the former president's book covers flashed across the monitors in front of them.

Several jurors were following along as Franklin read the excerpts.

"Always look at the numbers yourself," Franklin read from another book.

Another one said, "For me, there is nothing worse than a computer signing checks. When people see your signature at the bottom of the check, they know you're watching them and they screw you less."

And another one from Trump's book "Think Like a Billionaire": "Always question invoices."

Trump, sitting at the defense table, appeared engaged -- watching Franklin as she read his own words back to the court and intermittently exchanging whispers and notes with attorney Todd Blanche, seated to his left.

Blanche concluded a short cross-examination by emphasizing that Franklin only read from selected pages from a small portion of Trump's books.

Jurors were shown a photo of the cover of Trump's 2004 book, "How to Get Rich: Big Deals from the Star of The Apprentice."

"How many times does the word 'Trump' appear on the cover of this book?" a prosecutor asked Penguin Random House VP Sally Franklin, on the witness stand.

"Three times," Franklin said.

ABC News previously reported about prosecutors' plan to use the quotes from Trump's books against him at trial.

"When somebody hurts you, just go after them as viciously and as violently as you can," Franklin read from the book. "For many years I've said that if someone screws you, screw them back."

Prosecutors have called Sally Franklin as their first witness.

Franklin works as senior vice president for Penguin Random House.

She is testifying as a custodial witness.

Former Trump Organization controller Jeffrey McConney testified about how he learned about the need to reimburse Michael Cohen in 2017.

"Allen said, 'We have to get some money to Michael -- reimburse Michael," McConney said, referring to then-Trump Organization CFO Allen Weisselberg. "He tossed a pad toward me and I started taking notes on what he said. That's how I found out about it."

McConney said that the money included Cohen's bonus for the year and "some other money he was owed." Prosecutors allege that the payment reimbursed Cohen in part for his $130,000 hush-money payment to Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 election.

Asked to describe Cohen's role in the company, McConney responded, "He said he was a lawyer."
