Today we were joined by Sonja Ferrell from the Ottumwa Public Library and Ali Wilson from United Way of Wapello County. They are so excited to bring Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library to Wapello County. This program provides a child with a book each month from birth to five years. The program started in Dolly’s hometown in 1995 and expanded to other communities in 2000. In 2020 the program gifted its 150 millionth book!! 📚
Thanks to some amazing community partners, the program will officially kick off with a story walk in Central Park on September 8. Sign the children in your life up for the program online or at the library.
