Bilingual FAQs
Exciting news from the Dollywood Foundation! We’re thrilled to introduce a brand new 100% Bilingual English/Spanish Imagination Library Book Collection available in Tennessee, North Carolina, Washington DC, Delaware, Ohio, California, Colorado, Montana, Kansas, Arkansas, Alabama, Louisiana, Kentucky, Maine, Illinois, Oregon, Indiana, Oklahoma, Missouri, West Virginia, and New Mexico!
If you’re a new registrant, you can choose which amazing collection of books you’d like to receive. And for those already signed up, we’re happy to say you can switch to one of these delightful options if you wish! Here’s what we have for you:
1. English – This collection features mostly English books with a sprinkle of bilingual English/Spanish titles.
2. Bilingual English/Spanish – All bilingual books!
Both collections are lovingly curated by our book selection committee to inspire a passion for reading, just as they’ve always done. While some books will overlap between the two collections, each will have unique titles sent out each month. For all the details, don’t forget to check the Books Mailed list in the BOS.
We're particularly excited about this initiative as it paves the way for equitable access to high-quality children's books for Spanish-speaking families. Most of these fantastic bilingual titles have been specially translated into Spanish just for Dolly Parton's Imagination Library by Penguin Random House and aren’t available for sale in stores.
