They are far and away the best-known series of books for young people ever published.</p><p>The subjects of Golden Books are chosen to entertain and delight children. Many of them are about the young child's own environment giving him a feeling of belonging. Others begin to acquaint the child with the lives of people around him and extend his awareness of the world.</p><p>Although their gay and colorful appearance does not always immediately show it a number of Golden Books are packed with information. And behind the amusing stories in many of them is the serious purpose of helping the child prepare for difficult adjustments.</p><p>The Golden Books include versions of modern children's classics told for young listeners and of course a good share of the beloved fairy and folk tales</p><p>So look closely at the Golden Books you choose for they have many imitators. You will find a listing of some of the books in the Little Golden Library on the reverse of this cover.</p><p>About the publishers:<br />The Little Golden Books were printed in September 1942 and for sale in stores in October. One and a half million books were sold in just five months. With an initial series of twelve titles each having a print run of 50000 copies the first Little Golden Books were priced at a very affordable 25 cents each. Little Golden Books started with publishing firm Simon & Schuster; Western Printing and Lithographing Company in Racine Wisconsin was Simon & Schuster's partner in the Little Golden Books venture with Western handling print operations. Ownership and control of the series have changed several times since; today Penguin Random House is its current publisher. Wikipedia</p> Golden Press hardcover
