Our mission is simply to inspire children and families to Dream More, Learn More, Care More, Be
MoreTM. Rooted in Dolly’s beloved Smoky Mountains, we believe “love” is our superpower and strive to always embody courageous hearts and optimistic spirits. Inspired by Dolly, our relentless drive to contribute to something meaningful and impactful propels us to achieve extraordinary results. Our genuine connections and appreciation for all our Imagination Library partners worldwide, fuels our collective efforts, forming what we proudly call “Team Dolly!”
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 nearly 200 million free books in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, and The Republic of Ireland. The Imagination Library mails more than 2 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 and be more.
The impact of the program has been widely researched and results suggest positive increases in key early childhood literacy metrics. Penguin Random House is the exclusive publisher for Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library.
