Today, we say goodbye to a true legend with a heart as big as the world. Thank you, Dolly Parton, for the music, love, and joy you shared, and for creating a beautiful legacy of literacy that has placed books into the hands and hearts of children across Tennessee and beyond. Your light will continue to shine through every child who discovers the magic of reading.
Rest in peace, Dolly. Your legacy will live on forever. 📚💛
