We had little golden books too.

My favorites were "Three Little Kittens" and "Four Puppies", those were the 2 my Grandma always read us before bedtime when we stayed at her house...even when we were plenty old enough to read them ourselves. I used to have those actual books she read me but i lost them some place in all my many moves.

I remember those books from back in the day too. There were lots of them.
I remember the Dick, Spot and Jane books too and wondered at the time why no one made one more fitting to the times.

Emergency preparedness at its best.

@Bruce, I looked online and did not see it anywhere but the eBay bid is a whole $2.00 including shipping so it won't break me either way.

We had a bunch of little Golden books in the house,( I do remember "The 3 Little Kittens) and the Dick and Jane books. I remember learning to read those books when I was about 5 but I probably had it memorized more than actually reading it. I know I had Dr. Seuss's "Hop on Pop" book memorized. I most likely read the Little Red Hen to my kids too and just don't remember it, my Mom bought them a set of about 50 books when they were small. We did a lot of reading.

It was a cheerful era Bruce. WW2 and Korea were over and the economy was booming. (so were the sonic booms and Khrushchev's shoe banging)
What could possibly go wrong?

Yeah, you are right not much could go wrong :lol:
I remember the "duck and cover" drills at school. Too young at the time to understand what a farce that was. If a nuke is coming your way you just kiss your a$$ goodby.
