ABOUT DOLLY PARTON’S IMAGINATION LIBRARY:

Founded
in 1995, Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library is a book gifting
organization that has, to date, mailed more than 100 million books to
children in Australia, Belize, Canada, United Kingdom and the United
States. Each month, the program currently mails more than one million
specially selected, high-quality, age-appropriate books to registered
children from birth until they start Kindergarten in participating
communities. Dolly envisioned creating a lifelong love of reading in children,
preparing them for school and inspiring them to dream. Recent studies
suggest participation in the Imagination Library is positively and
significantly associated with higher measures of early language and math
development. Penguin Random House is the exclusive publisher for Dolly
Parton’s Imagination Library.
