About Dolly Parton's Imagination Library
Since launching in 1995, Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library has become the preeminent early childhood book gifting
program in the world. The flagship program of The Dollywood Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, has
gifted over 200 million free books in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, and The Republic of
Ireland. This is achieved through funding shared by The Dollywood Foundation and Local Program Partners. The
Imagination Library mails more than 3 million high-quality, age-appropriate books each month to enrolled children
from birth to age five. Dolly envisioned creating a lifelong love of reading and inspiring children to Dream More, Learn
More, Care More, Be More.
The program has been widely researched and results demonstrate the positive impact on early childhood
development and literacy skills. Penguin Random House is the exclusive publisher for Dolly Parton’s Imagination
Library.
