Dolly Parton will read stories to your kids every Thursday night

Dolly Parton announced on her Facebook page that she will begin reading stories for children, every Thursday night at 7 p.m.

The story time event begins on Thursday, April 2nd, 2020, and is scheduled for the next 10 weeks, through June 4th.

The events will take place through Facebook Live. You can see the schedule and watch Dolly’s video announcement on Facebook as well.

Dolly will read the stories while snuggled in her own bed, wearing pajamas. The books have all been chosen carefully for content that is appropriate for the times.
