WePAC/Philadelphia Affiliate Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library

BUILDING A STRONGER WEST PHILADELPHIA COMMUNITY, ONE BOOK AT A TIME.

Exciting news for parents and preschool children in West Philadelphia! Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library is now available to children living in West Philadelphia (zipcodes of 19104, 19131, 19139, 19143 and 19153)! Children from birth to age five can now be enrolled in the WePAC Imagination Library program to receive a free book in the mail once a month.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library works with local affiliates to mail free, high-quality books to preschool children once a month, no matter their family’s income. Each title is selected by a panel of early childhood literacy experts, who choose books to meet the age-specific developmental needs of young children. A list of selected books for each age group is available here.

HOW IS IT SUPPORTED?

The Philadelphia Imagination Library is powered locally by West Philadelphia Alliance for Children (WePAC). Our goal through this program is to increase literacy levels for preschool age children living in West Philadelphia, to provide opportunities for positive family experiences and engagement, and to foster a love of reading in the greater Philadelphia community.
