Dolly Parton's Imagination Library is a GO in Missouri as of Nov. 8, meaning kids from birth to age 5 can sign up to receive a free book each month from the Dollywood Foundation. Parents, you can register your eligible children here:

Recent studies suggest participation in the Imagination Library is positively and significantly associated with higher measures of early language and math development. Books included in the Imagination Library are chosen specifically to meet the different needs of children as they progress from birth to age five. We can't wait to see our littlest Eagles hop on the Dolly Parton bookwagon!
P.S. We hear
the enrollment website is having slow load times, perhaps due to so many excited Missouri parents wanting to enroll! There are no time limits to enrollment, though, so we hope you'll keep trying.
