Bilingual FAQs
The Dollywood Foundation is excited to announce a new 100% Bilingual English/Spanish Imagination Library Book Collection in Tennessee, North Carolina, Washington DC, Delaware, Ohio, and California.
New registrants will make a selection to choose which collection of books they would like to receive. Additionally, existing registrations may also switch over to one of these options if they wish. The two options are:
- English – Mostly English books with an occasional bilingual English/Spanish book
- Bilingual English/Spanish – All bilingual English/Spanish books
Both collections are specially selected by the book selection committee to inspire a love of reading, as they always have. Some books will be the same in both collections, but there will be differences in what books are mailed out between the collections each month, so refer to the Books Mailed list in the BOS for detailed information. The big difference is that we are paving the way for equitable access to high-quality children's books for Spanish-speaking families.
Most of these bilingual titles are translated into Spanish specifically for Dolly Parton's Imagination Library by Penguin Random House and are not available for purchase in retail locations. Click here to view the 2024 Bilingual Book List.
