Yes! When you enroll your child, you will have the option to choose bilingual books in English and Spanish. California is the only state in the US to offer books in Spanish. At this time, there are no other languages available.

Book orders are placed on the first day of the month AFTER your completed registration form is entered into the database and approved. Once the order is placed, your child’s first book should arrive within 8-12 weeks.

For example: If we receive your registration on June 15, you’ll be included in the July 1 book order. Your book will arrive by the last week of August.

After that, the books will arrive approximately every 30 days, unless your address changes or your child ages out of the program.

You don’t have to create an account for your child to receive books, but you can manage your child’s participation in the program online. You’ll be able to make address updates and see when books were mailed, as well as which titles.

Books may arrive at different times of the month. After each child has received the first book, subsequent books should arrive by the last day of the month—but not necessarily on the same day.

No. You and your child’s information will never be shared with advertisers. Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library takes information security very seriously. We will not share it or use it for any purpose other than to communicate with you about the Imagination Library.

When your child reaches their 5th birthday, they will graduate from Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library. Woohoo! They will receive the graduation book, the final one in the program, the month of their 5th birthday as long as they are active in the system with a valid address on file.

In addition to receiving the Graduation Book, children will receive a personalized video message from Dolly on their 5th birthday via the registered email!

Please Note: Any child whose 5th birthday is in the same month that their registration becomes active will not receive the graduation email and will only receive the first book, The Little Engine That Could.
