CINCINNATI, OH (FOX19) - Remember the Poky Little Puppy? Or maybe you were more of a Tootle the Train fan. Whichever Little Golden Book character was your favorite, you now have the chance to revisit your old friends.

The Main Library is hosting the “Golden Legacy” exhibit, the most extensive public showing ever of original illustration art from American publishing’s best-loved and most consequential picture-book series, Little Golden Books.

The exhibit runs through Feb. 21, 2013, in the Main Library’s Atrium, 800 Vine Street. Hours are: 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Wednesday; 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Thursday through Saturday; and 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday.

Launched in 1942 — the first full year of America’s involvement in World War II — Little Golden Books made high-quality illustrated books available at affordable prices for the first time to millions of young children and their parents.

CINCINNATI, OH (FOX19) - Beech Acres Parenting Center, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting parents and caregivers in raising children who thrive, is hosting its As My Child Grows: Understanding Your Child’s Typical Development and Behavior parenting workshop Tuesday, November 13 (in its Anderson campus) and Thursday, November 29 (on its West campus).

It is common for parents to ask the question, “Is this normal?” They may compare their child’s growth and development to others, or have read all the articles but still are not sure what to do. Attendees will learn to identify age-appropriate or ‘normal’ developmental tasks and ways to encourage and support the various stages of their child’s growth from birth to pre-adolescence.

Cost is $15 and pre-registration is required at www.beechacres.org/workshops or by calling Beech Acres Parenting Center at 513-231-6630.
