AADL honored the life of the Queen of Country, Dolly Parton, on 9/25 with Dolly Day. Dolly was, among many things, an extraordinary singer-songwriter and philanthropist. Her Imagination Library alone has donated hundreds of millions of free books to children.

Rest in Peace, Dolly. The world is less sparkly without you in it. 💖
