In the 1960s Golden Books drew criticism for their lack of racial diversity, and the creative teams behind the books worked to make them more inclusive. 'When I think of these famous Little Golden Books - like Tawny Scrawny Lion, Scuffy the Tugboat, The Shy Little Kitten - these books have a wit to them, a slyness that I think was very rare at the time. 'I think that sense of motion and wit - it really shines through the books,' says Muldrow. Your purchase helps support NPR programming.
