Dolly Parton’s legacy is so much more than music. Through her Imagination Library, she put millions of books into children’s hands -championing something we care deeply about at JCEH: the power of reading. Reading opens doors & changes lives. A remarkable legacy. 📚❤️

Quality conversations matter in early years education. 💬 Shared reading, rich discussions, introducing new vocabulary, promoting thinking aloud & sustained shared thinking all help children become confident communicators and learners. #EEF educationendowmentfoundation.org.uk/early-years/...
