Dolly Parton on Being “Trapped” With Husband Carl Dean During Quarantine
“I thought this would be a wonderful time with kids having to be stuck at home with their parents, [and] the parents being stuck with kids,” she said. “I thought, ‘Why don’t I just read a book to everybody while their parents have their kids up in bed?’”
She kicked it off with “The Little Engine That Could” on April 2, as it’s a “real positive book for the times right now.” The readings will take place every Thursday night at 7 p.m. EST for 10 weeks. Parton also announced that she will be donating $1 million to Vanderbilt University Hospital to aid in COVID-19 vaccine research. “I just felt like this was the time for me to open my heart and my hand and try to help with that,” she said.
