Guest Book Review:  Dolly Parton, Songteller: My Life in Lyrics by Dolly Parton

Dolly Parton, Songteller: My Life in Lyrics by Dolly Parton. Chronicle Books, 2020. 9781797205090. 380 pp.

Anyone who knows me knows that Dolly Rebecca Parton is my favorite person in the world. She is an excellent singer/songwriter, a savvy businesswoman, a cherished family member, and much more. I am rarely quiet but I do think this fellow Southern girl could render me speechless.

Dolly has come out with this beautiful, oversized book. It includes lyrics and the stories behind them. There are also photographs galore of album covers, stage costumes, family members, and other Dolly artifacts plus more anecdotes. It feels like Dolly’s personal scrapbook, and thumbing through it will pique your interest in one of the best people on this green earth.
