Ep. 112 - Fostering Imagination and Being Creative Through Art in Publishing

Biz Buzz

The Imagination Library

The world recently lost a great person in Dolly Parton. In this week's Biz Buzz segment, we talk about one of her most endearing legacies and one that fits in perfectly with what we do, the Imagination Library. Through her foundation, the Imagination Library sends children from birth through 5 years old a free book every month.

We talk about why she created this, how far it's reached, and why it is such an important topic.
