In Dolly's Boots

Reading about Retta Lee Jones’ journey to Nashville was a lot like reading my own diary, except she had prettier boots. It’s a wonderful story about dreams and determination that reminds us all to squeeze the most out of every single day.

--Dolly Parton
 
 
Who is Retta Lee Jones? And why is Dolly Parton talking about Retta Lee Jones? And why should you care that Dolly Parton is talking about someone named Retta Lee Jones? Um, because my mom wrote the novel Somebody Everybody Listens To, and it's about Retta Lee Jones.
 
 
 
 
 
Yeah. Dolly Parton read my mom's book.
 
I consider this to be a big deal. I mean, it's not every day that Dolly Parton goes around reading young adult fiction novels and giving blurbs for them. So, needless to say, I'm proud of my momma.
 
Her book comes out tomorrow, May 13th.  So I suggest you pick up a copy for you and your loved ones and help pay for my college tuition by doing so.
