Best written book by Dolly herself.
Excellent read. I loved all the pictures that's in this book. I bought this for my daughter for Mother's Day from the kiddos. She's really enjoying it along with her daughter.

As an audiobook this is a collection…
As an audiobook this is a collection of interviews in which Dolly discusses the stories and influences behind 100 of her songs, often with snippets of the songs discussed included. If you like Dolly, you'll like the audiobook and that's really all there is to it. I will be picking up the physical book to skim at some point to see how they compare as I'd imagine they're very different reading experiences.

    A truly remarkable lady. Her talents…
    A truly remarkable lady. Her talents in songwriting, how far she has come on her own talent and moxie, amazing. One of twelve children, raised in an Appalachian cabin with few amenities, her family didn't have much in the way of material things. They were, however, rich in love, family and music. Her songs all tell a story, many based on actual people. She has written for and song with many country notables. I started out reading this, able to get a copy from Hoopla, but when I saw the song lyrics I bought the audible. I read along, the audio in Dolly's voice, listening to her sing some of the verses of her songs, but able to see all the pictures, of which there were many, in the Hoopla copy. Warning though, it's a trade off, the book doesn't follow the audio, more in contained in the book, but together they were perfect. The format on audio is a interviewer, interviewed type of narrative. Dolly does discuss her life, her family, her husband, her career and why she wrote each song. It was fun, interesting and a perfect first read, listen to 2021. The bad part, I had the song Jolene stuck in my head for most of yesterday.

    A great gift idea.
    This was a gift for our niece who was Doralee Rhodes (Dolly Parton) in the 9-5 musical. She loved receiving the book!

    Was surprised how big and heavy this book is. Oversized and 380 pages, I love the stories and the pictures are beautiful.
