Paper Abstract
A 7 page paper examining Imagination Library, the literacy program founded and sustained by the Dollywood Foundation in East Tennessee, as a model for another program more closely aligned with the needs of an inner-city, bilingual population. In the 500 communities in which it operates, Imagination Library provides a library of books to children up to five years old, beginning at birth. The books are for children, but selection is designed to support adult literacy as parents read to their children. PowerPoint presentation available. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
