===Miscellaneous=== For many years Golden Press was publisher of [[Betty Crocker]] cookbooks. Often these were issued in a three-ring binder format so recipe pages could be removed for easy consultation while cooking. Western produced games such as [[Trivial Pursuit]] and [[Pictionary]] until [[Hasbro]] bought that division in 1994.<ref>{{Cite news |date=April 8, 1994 |title=Company News; Western Publishing To Sell Its Games Unit To Hasbro |work=[[The New York Times]] |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1994/04/08/business/company-news-western-publishing-to-sell-its-games-unit-to-hasbro.html |url-status=live |access-date=September 19, 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150926073709/http://www.nytimes.com/1994/04/08/business/company-news-western-publishing-to-sell-its-games-unit-to-hasbro.html |archive-date=September 26, 2015}}</ref> The company published the children's science books ''[[The World of Science (Golden book)|The World of Science]]''<ref>{{cite web |last=preskill |date=January 6, 2013 |title=Science books for kids matter (or used to) |url=http://quantumfrontiers.com/2013/01/06/science-books-for-kids-matter-or-used-to/ |access-date=August 14, 2015 |website=quantumfrontiers.com}}</ref> and ''[[The Golden Book of Chemistry Experiments]]'',<ref>{{cite web |title=The Golden Book of Chemistry Experiments |url=https://archive.org/details/GoldenBookOfChemistryExperiments |access-date=August 17, 2015 |website=archive.org |publisher=[[Internet Archive]]}}</ref> while the [[Golden Guide]] nature guides were published with the Golden Press name.<ref name="GoldenGuides" />
