We are so saddened to hear the news about Dolly Pa We are so saddened to hear the news about Dolly Parton's passing. Everyone knew Dolly as an extremely talented musician and actress. We loved that about her too, but we especially loved her passion for ensuring every child has access to books. Dolly cared deeply that kids around the world had reading opportunities before they reached kindergarten. We will continue to honor her legacy through our mission to expand book access for kids across Houston. Rest in peace, Dolly. 🦋
