The endpaper looks right on the linked book but I don't think that's the cover I had, either. Thanks for the walk down memory lane.

That's how I felt, too--I recognized the endpaper, but I think my copy had Jo lying down, with that apple.
Right, Whitman published the Trixie Beldens too, as well as a bunch of TV tie-ins--Roy Rogers, Annette Funicello, Rin-Tin-Tin. They had glossy, coated pictorial covers, and the coating would peel off.
Whitman and Golden Books were part of the same publishing house, I think.
