Reading with your child is one of the most powerful ways to support their growth and learning. Through Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, families in the 54301 and 54302 zip codes can receive a brand-new, age-appropriate book in the mail every month—completely free. From birth until age five, children build their very own library at home, sparking a love of reading and creating special moments for parents and children to share together.
This program is about more than just books. It’s about giving every child the chance to explore, imagine, and learn—no matter their family’s income or circumstances. By putting books directly into the hands of children, we remove barriers and ensure that families have the tools to support early literacy right from the start.
For parents, it means treasured story time, new opportunities to bond, and the confidence that your child is gaining skills to succeed in school and beyond. For our community, it means investing in the future—building a strong foundation where every child has the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive.
