Imagination Library
Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library has arrived in Central Virginia!
​
Read to Them is a local affiliate of Dolly Parton's Imagination Library. As an affiliate of the program, we help provide a free, age-appropriate, high-quality book each month to registered children from birth to age five. These books are mailed directly to the child’s home to create a gifting experience that makes books exciting and shows the child someone is thinking of them.
“The single most significant factor influencing a child’s early educational success is an
introduction to books and being read to at home prior to beginning school.”
- National Commission on Reading

If you have several children under age five, each child can be enrolled separately and will receive their own books.
