Publisher's summary

Audie Award Finalist, Personal Development, 2014

The legendary Dolly Parton shares for the first time her deeply held philosophy of life and her heartfelt hopes for everyone. Based on the hugely popular commencement speech Dolly Parton gave at the University of Tennessee that became a sensation, Dream More is a deeper and richer exploration of the personal philosophy she has forged over the course of her astonishing career as a singer, songwriter, performer, and philanthropist.

Using her speech as a jumping-off point, Parton explores the four great hopes she urges us to embrace: Dream more, learn more, care more, and be more. She culls examples of these values from her own life as illustrations, from growing up poor in the hills of eastern Tennessee to her experiences as the iconic performer she has become today.

Written by one of the cultural legends of our time, Dream More is a poignant and uplifting anthem for all who want to take charge of their lives and forge a future on their own terms.

Any fans of Dolly will like this book

The whole message and performance are great. Whether people realize it or not, Dolly has lived a full life and has a lot of wisdom to impart from her experience. The all-around message is fun and lighthearted.

Finding the Dreamer in ME!

I am in school to become a court reporter. There is a lot of doubting, judging, and struggle with this program. There is a 90% drop out rate in becoming a court reporter. Dolly reminded me that I need to believe in myself, never give up, and let God take care of me!

Fun to listen to and encouraging it. Loved it!!!

This was fun to listen to, encouraging, and practical. Love listen to Dolly, I felt like she was talking to me and I laughed out loud. Made the car ride go by fast and I was sad when it was over.

This is a very uplifting and encouraging book for all ages. Having Dolly herself narrate is the icing on the cake.

Should be a different category.

This book was a very interesting and at any age, you could learn something. One of the best autobiography I have read. Should be found in the EDUCATIONAL, MOTIVATIONAL section. Thanks, Dolly

Love it!

Very motivational. I have a whole new level of respect for Dolly Parton. This is a book that should probably be listened to once a month just to keep your spirit going in the right direction.
