Classic Country Song Inspires New Kids Book
Dolly Parton reached another milestone and added another line to her extensive legacy.
FOX’s Michelle Pollino reports:
On the heels of celebrating half a century with her husband, Dolly Parton decided to embark on another venture turning one of her songs into a book. Grosset & Dunlap, an imprint of Penguin Young readers, announced Thursday that it will release “The Coat of Many Colors” on Oct. 18.
(Parton) “My coat of many colors that my mama made for me.”
Based on her classic song about her childhood in rural Tennessee, the book will feature illustrations by Brooke Boynton Hughes and a downloadable song by Parton, called “Making Fun Ain’t Funny.”
Parton also recently renewed her vows with husband Carl Dean. The couple tied the knot on May 30, 1966.
