If you’re seeking a bit of comfort in trying times, look no further: Dolly Parton is gracing us with bedtime stories.
The Tennessee songstress, who sends books to 850,000 kids per month, will broadcast bedtime stories online.
She’ll kick off the 10-book series on April 2, starting with The Little Engine That Could and continuing weekly with other selections from Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library.

How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
In a library announcement, Dolly said:
“I hope this gift will further inspire a love of books and shared storytime during this important time. … From everyone on our team, thank you so much for inspiring a love of reading in your family. As I always say — We cannot direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails — and we’re going to do just that, together.”
The streams will be available on YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
We’re so ready for this.
