Little People, Big Dreams: Dolly Parton - Isabel Sanchez Vegara

This little biography of Dolly Parton tells the inspiring tale of a girl who grew up in Tennessee in a family 'as poor as dirt' and went on to become a musical superstar. She started singing on local radio and TV at a young age, and moved to Nashville after high school to pursue her dreams. Her managers wanted her to sing pop but she followed her heart to sing and write country songs. Dolly now uses her fame and wealth to give back to people, children and animals in need. 

 The Little People, Big Dreams books series portrays the inspiring lives of artists, designers, activists and scientists in a super-accessible way with sweet illustrations and by focusing on when they started out as children with a dream. Each book has a biographical timeline with historical photographs and extra facts, too.
