You' ve likely heard of the performer Dolly Parton. But do you know where this dazzling songwriter and musician draws her roots? As one of twelve children growing up in rural Tennessee, Dolly was determined to be seen and heard. From her front porch to her church choir, every stage was an opportunity to perform and share her many talents. While balancing farm chores with schoolwork, Dolly never lost sight of her dreams, composing her first song at age five and performing at the Grand Ole Opry at age thirteen. With lilting language and vibrant artwork, this childhood story captures the unique gifts of Dolly Parton, while also honoring the measures of her success: resilience, confidence, family, and kindness.
"This digitally illustrated book is as bright as the singer' s favorite outfits. . . . Add this to any collection that lacks a Parton biography. "--School Library Journal Praise for Dolly! "A profile of the Queen of Country Music that conveys the spirit and spunk of a little girl with a big vision. " --Kirkus
