This did not arrive as it was shown. What is shown is a Golden Book. I had this book as a child. I considered my books my friends and took very good care of them. I am now 79 years old. I lost all my precious Golden Books when my home was flooded by Hurricane Helene. I have memories of my children in the growing up years periodically cozying up on a winter's day rereading the Golden Books of my childhood. Then my Grandchildren. Then my Great Grandchildren. When I lost them I lost a treasure. I can't get all of them back ... I must have had 30 of them. But I am trying to get back the most favorite ones. The book I received is an 8X10 hardbound book from 1979. The book is in excellent condition. There is no reason a true picture of it could have been posted so I could see it for the book it actually was.
