Dolly Parton to Record Audiobook Version of Upcoming Book "Songteller: My Life in Lyrics"

Dolly Parton's dropping a new book later this year just in time for Christmas--and now The Country Daily reports that she'll also be recording the audiobook of the project herself. 

 

Songteller: My Life in Lyrics will arrive on November 17 in hardcover, CD and digital audiobook formats. The book will explore Parton's life and career through 175 of her most beloved tracks.

 

Back in June, Parton announced the book by humorously saying in a Twitter video, "My songs are like my children. I expect them to support me when I'm old."

 

On Thursday, she announced the audiobook by sharing a snippet in which she reveals the inspiration behind her most iconic hit, "Jolene."
