Last week, while buying some storage tubs in BigW, I happened to wander into the book department... I love books & this one is something a little different...
This book takes images from some of the many Little Golden Books, & applies a little 'life lesson' for adults...
These pages are sending me a message or two!
Love this one, about making a budget & sticking to it... I definitely need to be doing that from now on... And having a check-up, hhmmm, I've not been to the dentist for a while...
The small writing you can see at the bottom of each page is a description of which Little Golden Book the image appears in... so many fun pics & words... And yes, so many little reminders about the things in life that actually do matter.
Found this cheeky pic online, I don't recall it in any Golden Book I ever saw!!
(UPDATE: Just to clarify, the book 'Everything I Need To Know...' is not a Little Golden Book publication, but is written by a former long-time editor of the Books)

Hello Anthea,
I love the Little Golden Books for adults, though they will never get me to the Dentist no matter how much they try!.
Happy days.
Bev.

How cute! I always love Little Golden Books. Mine are now all long gone.
Lol, I love the last one hehehe. I loved my Golden books and get quite upset with the new trend of cafes tearing the pages out and replacing them with menus. Thanks for making me smile.
What a great find! I love the little Golden Books but didn't even know they made them for adults too.

Thanks for the memories Anthea, I too will have to have a look for this book at my next visit to Big W :) Barb.
Fabulous, I will have to look out for a copy
Love Golden Books. I bought that copy back in December & have been looking for the next one they put out. I was in Big W waiting on my daughter who was looking at clothes, strolled through the books just looking & lo & behold found the book i've been wanting. :) Hugs,xx

Hi Anthea,somehow I had missed this post ,sorry. I found your new book quite interesting and what a lovely idea ,when we had our first child every pay day when I did the shopping I would buy my daughter a little golden book so she ended up with quite a lot and still to this day she reads books all the time,Thankyou for sharing Anthea I have enjoyed this post and the happy memories that it bought back to me xx

What a great find! I remember when my kids were babies I once entered a Golden Book Swap........I think I only got 1 book for the 3 I sent out! LOL.......
What a beautiful book - I love it! The kids and I have been reading our Little Golden Book these holidays. Some are very, very old. I love the old ones the most - the illustrations are just beautiful. Funny, I was just 'pinning' some online resources on budgeting!!
