Dolly Parton (Little People, BIG DREAMS, 28)
Little Dolly grew up in Tennessee in a family "as poor as dirt." She started performing at an early age, singing on local radio and television. After graduating high school, she moved to Nashville to pursue her singing dreams. Her managers wanted her to sing pop, but she followed her heart to sing and write country songs. Her heart was right—Dolly became a musical superstar, but she never forgot where she came from. She now uses her wealth to give back to people, children, and animals in need. This moving book features stylish and quirky illustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of the singer's life.

always very tastefully done in my experience (of course know the life of the person you are purchasing before you gift to a child) I own several of these books on different characters. great intro to lives of important historical figures, heroes, artists, scientists, and the like.
Good book. Good service.
Prompt easy order and delivery. Love the illustrations, and good for very young children-that can turn paper pages.

Great addition to the series. Even talks about her time with Porter Wagoner. The inclusion of the text biography and timeline after the picture book part really adds life to the charming book.
