“I have something to tell you later”. No, no you do not. You have something to tell me right now or my anxiety will take us both out.

We're bringing the magic of Dolly to every home in Illinois with Dolly Parton's Imagination Library!

Let's get to reading!

[Fixing Education @FixingEducation]

With 35 kids in a classroom, an educator can TEACH; but won’t be able to REACH!
