The legendary Dolly Parton has died at 80. In addition to being a cultural and personal inspiration to millions, she was known for her generosity and philanthropy. Dolly Parton's Imagination Library mails free books to kids every month, and inspired PJ Library, which helped grow into a thriving national program delivering Jewish books to families for over 20 years.

Thank you, Dolly, for inspiring generations of young readers. May her memory be for a blessing.
