Dolly Parton book program

Dolly Parton an icon in country music has had a book program for kids going on for 25 years due to her father being illiterate. It provides book in 5 different countries

Although it is not new news, I think it news that does not get out much. I think it is awesome that a musician can take popularity and to give back to the community. It reminds me how the collective is helping grassroots artist to get additional exposure to a new set of fans.

Dolly Parton what a true country music icon! Glad she’s helping people out

Nice share!

I love her songs and it is so nice of her to be doing that.

We have been doing this with my son for 2 years now. Some of the books are good. There has been a couple that have been more of a nuisance to read.
