Title: Ideal for Easy Read and Informative
Review: I am an avid Dollywood pass holder and have been going for 30 years this book was a fun easy read. I even learned a few things I didn't know about the park. I got some great ideas on some new picture spots. I would recommend this book to someone new to Dollywood or someone who frequents the parks.

Title: Dollywood Joy
Review: I grew up going to Dollywood and always loved it. Over the last several years I have found the time to visit. I was offered a chance to read this book for review and not only was I excited to read it now I’m excited to visit Dollywood again. The author really brings to life the joy of Dollywood. As I read I began to crave some delicious bakery treats and some festival adventures. The book had me strolling down memory lane and excited for the new things I haven’t seen yet. Can’t wait to experience the excitement the author feels for Dollywood!

Title: Thoughtfully laid out guide for making the most of your Dollywood visit
Review: This book is very thoughtfully laid out. It gives insights into the different areas of the park as you walk through, and in "geographical order". I appreciate how the author provides a backstory and park pointers for each place listed. As a long-time Dollywood season pass holder, I learned a few new things and was pleasantly reminded of a few old things I'd forgotten from years ago.The restaurant descriptions are excellent and very detailed. Restaurants are outlined showing whether different options are good for grabbing a quick snack or if they are a dine-in experience - there is also advice on which ones may require putting your name on a list. Special dietary needs are addressed for each dining option (where available).As far as rides go, The descriptions are very informative - from age/height restrictions to advice on whether a ride may induce motion sickness. This is extremely helpful if you've got thrill seekers and those who are a little less adventurous.I would recommend this book to first-time visitors and seasoned guests alike - there's something for everyone in it.

Title: Great Resource for Visiting the Park
Review: What a great resource for visiting Dollywood! It was filled with lots of insightful tips and descriptions of each restaurant, snacks, show, and rides. One chapter was dedicated to the festivals held throughout the year. I also liked that Dolly facts were sprinkled throughout the book. I didn’t notice any photos in my copy. I would have liked to have seen some photos included in the book. Funny tidbit: I read the book with a southern accent! Not sure why I just felt like it was appropriate for reading this book! I can't wait to use all the knowledge I gained when I visit the Park in the near future.

Title: Clear and consise
Review: This book hits the need-to-knows of a visit to the Amusement Park. It is not overwhelming, but is a well-organized book that describes each venue in each section of the park, and includes tips and interesting bits of information about Dolly and Dollywood.
