In November 2017, Dolly Parton graced us with the incredible honor of sitting down with us for an interview. The topic? Her beloved Imagination Library. Her initiative reflects so much of what Dolly has always stood for: the power of a child’s imagination, the importance of literacy, and the belief that every child deserves the opportunity to dream.
We at Franklin Lifestyle thought about how we wanted to honor her, and we wanted our tribute to be more than simply a look back. We wanted it to be an invitation to celebrate Dolly by giving back in a way that carries her vision forward.
According to public guidance shared by Dolly Parton and her team, those wishing to honor her legacy are encouraged to support the Imagination Library.
So, we’re re-sharing the cover of our 2017 issue featuring Dolly and inviting our readers to learn more about the Imagination Library (ImaginationLibrary.com) and the impact it continues to make in the lives of children and families.
If you feel led to honor Dolly, we hope you’ll consider doing so by supporting the cause closest to this particular chapter of her legacy: putting books into the hands of children and helping their imaginations take flight.
Thank you for celebrating with us and for helping us turn admiration into action.
With gratitude,
The Franklin Lifestyle Team
