We still need volunteers for this program. If interested please see Becky Gilleylen.

Dolly Parton Imagination Library Dear Friends & Neighbors, Growing up in the Smoky Mts. was a real blessing. One of the most precious memories is sitting in my mother's lap and listening to her read me stories from the Bible. It felt so warm and cozy. My imagination soared to places far beyond our little cabin. Those wonderful moments with my mother inspired me to create my imagination library. I hope these books inspire you to read to your child. Dolly Parton
