Revolutionary Beginning: When Little Golden Books were first published in 1942, high-quality books for children hadn't been available at a price most people could afford. Little Golden Books changed that! Priced at just 25 cents and sold where people shopped every day, they caused an instant sensation and were soon purchased by the hundreds of thousands.

Influential Illustrators: Several of its illustrators later became influential within the children's book industry, including Corinne Malvern, Tibor Gergely, Gustaf Tenggren, Feodor Rojankovsky, Richard Scarry, Eloise Wilkin, and Garth Williams.

Diverse Content: Many books in the Little Golden Books series deal with nature, science, Bible stories, nursery rhymes, and fairy tales. Christmas titles are published every year.

Popular Characters: Some Little Golden Books and related products have featured popular characters from other media, such as Disney, Looney Tunes, The Muppets, Sesame Street, Sonic the Hedgehog, Barbie, Power Rangers, Thomas the Tank Engine, and others.

Biography Series: The line has also published occasional biographies; recent examples include Betty White, Dolly Parton, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Michael J. Fox.

Enduring Legacy: Despite changes over the years, Little Golden Books maintains its distinctive appearance. At the time of the series' golden anniversary in 1992, Golden Books claimed that one and a half billion Little Golden Books had been sold. Today, Penguin Random House is its publisher.
