At the Washington County Public Library, we know that a library is about so much more than books. It’s about opening doors, sparking imagination, bringing people together, and giving every child the opportunity to dream.

Through her beloved Imagination Library, Dolly has helped place millions of books into the hands and hearts of children around the world. Her simple but powerful belief — that every child deserves the chance to own books and discover the joy of reading — has touched countless lives.

For generations of families, that first book arriving in the mailbox has been more than a gift. It has been an invitation to explore, learn, imagine, and believe in what is possible. 📖✨

Dolly has shown us that literacy can change a life. A book can inspire a child. A story can build confidence. Reading together can strengthen a family. And a love of books can last a lifetime.

💙 Thank you, Dolly, for reminding us that one book, one child, and one act of kindness can make a difference.

Because when we put a book into a child’s hands, we aren’t just giving them something to read. We’re giving them a world of possibilities. 🌎📚
