By providing free literature regardless of a family's income, Dolly Parton leveled the playing field for early childhood education. While her music earned her worldwide fame, she always maintained that her literacy program was the most important thing she had ever done. Through the millions of tiny hands turning pages every day, Dolly's love, imagination, and voice will endure for generations. Dolly, we will always love you.
