The Pithy Take
So, kids have brains, right? And they start out real small and unimpressive. I know people say, “Your baby is learning so much!” but they really don’t know anything. You know what helps them know things, though? Books. Not even highly informative books like $2.00 a Day: Living on Almost Nothing in America, but books that read like an alien pretending to be human: “This is an egg. The egg is white. Yolk is yellow.” Kids love it! And Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library provides each registered child with an age-appropriate book per month until the child turns five. It’s free! Even better: The books aren’t about egg colors. They’re paperback, educational, colorful, and full of Dolly’s love.
