📚✨ October’s books are on the way to children in Caldwell County! ✨📚
This month’s Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library books are being mailed, carrying forward one of the most meaningful parts of Dolly’s extraordinary legacy. Dolly shared that her father once told her the Imagination Library was the most important thing she had ever done.
Today, her dream continues every time a child opens a new book.
Children in Caldwell County from birth to age 5 can receive a FREE, age-appropriate book in the mail every month through Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library.
Register now, and your child’s first books should begin arriving by November! www.caldwellsmartstart.org. If you need to update an address, email Kim at [email protected] or call (828)426-5437.

What a beautiful way to keep Dolly’s dream alive: one child, one book, and one mailbox at a time. 🦋🌈
