Turn your next story time into skill-building time 📗

Thanks to the Ohio Department of Children and Youth, families in Ohio now have access to a catalog of book guides for Dolly Parton's Imagination Library books!

These age-appropriate book guides are an extension of what's provided on the inside cover of our books. Caregivers can incorporate new questions and fun activities during their next story time to strengthen their child's early literacy skills.
