In Memory of Dolly...Today while volunteering at Books on Becker a patron who is a regular to our little shop was telling my husband and myself about a show he has been watching called "The Booksellers." It is about a group of people who work in a New York bookstore and the camaraderie they share which is often quite comical.

The patron's phone rang; he took the call, listened, and then hung up. With a look of great sadness he spoke and his words were..."Dolly Parton has died." At that very moment, a second patron walked into our area holding a biography of Dolly Parton. I said to her that she must have heard that Dolly had died...She had not. The four of us just stood without saying a word. Camaraderie can also be the sharing of great sadness in a little bookstore in Belen.

For the past thirty-one years Dolly Parton has overseen and funded much of the Dolly Parton Imagination Library...to date 332,411,218 new books have been gifted to children every month for the first five years of their lives. Every so often, one of these books makes its way into Books on Becker after it has been read aloud numerous times by a parent with a child on their lap. The outgrown book is then passed on to us so that it makes its way into the hands of another child. For me, Dolly will be remembered not only as a world class singer, songwriter, actress, and philanthropist but also as a champion for the early literacy development of our greatest resource...our children.
