This board book version of Dolly Parton--from the critically
acclaimed, multimillion-copy best-selling Little People, BIG DREAMS
series--introduces the youngest dreamers to the incredible life of this
singer-songwriter and businesswoman.
Little Dolly grew up in Tennessee in a family "as poor as dirt." She
started performing at an early age, singing on local radio and
television. After graduating high school, she moved to Nashville to
pursue her singing dreams. Her managers wanted her to sing pop, but she
followed her heart to sing and write country songs. Her heart was
right--Dolly became a musical superstar, but she never forgot where she
came from. She now uses her wealth to give back to people, children, and
animals in need. Babies and toddlers will love to snuggle as you
read to them the engaging story of this fascinating musician and will
also enjoy exploring the stylish and quirky illustrations of this sturdy
board book on their own.

ages, in a range of formats. The board books are told in simple
sentences, perfect for reading aloud to babies and toddlers. The
