In 1975, Western Publishing Company released a large-sized, 2-sided Golden Book. One half was titled I'm My Daddy, and could be read to the middle. When the book is flipped over, it reads from the opposite cover as I'm My Mommy.

The content of the book is summarized as, "Two stories explore the trials, tribulations, and fun of being a parent from the point of view of a mother and father."

Cameo appearances include Bert, Grover, Big Bird, Guy Smiley, Don Music, Biff (with green skin), Oscar the Grouch, Granny Fanny Nesselrode, Roosevelt Franklin and his mother, Ernie and Sherlock Hemlock (both in framed portraits), and Little Bird.

The two stories meet in the middle.
