Publisher's summary

Funny and poignant personal stories and reflections from former first daughters Jenna Bush Hager and Barbara Pierce Bush.

Born into a political dynasty, Jenna and Barbara Bush grew up in the public eye. As small children, they watched their grandfather become president; just 12 years later they stood by their father's side when he took the same oath. They spent their college years being trailed by the Secret Service and chased by the paparazzi, with every teenage mistake making national headlines. But the tabloids didn't tell the whole story of these two young women forging their own identities under extraordinary circumstances.

In this book, they take listeners on a revealing, thoughtful, and deeply personal tour behind the scenes of their lives, with never-before-told stories about their family, their adventures, their loves and losses, and the special sisterly bond that fulfills them.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Exceeded my expectations!

I’ll say I low expectations. But have grown to love JBH on the today show and wanted to give this a book a go because I’ve enjoyed their press interviews of the book. Truly, you’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll smile and enjoy the book so much. I can imagine listening to it again just for JBH’s hilarious narrations.

Love these girls!

This was such a fun book! Yes, it will make you laugh and cry but I loved that each of the girls narrated their chapters. When George H. W. Bush died recently I was reminded of the beautiful stories the girls told about Poppy. As the mother of four daughters I only hope that they will experience this incredible bond throughout their life.

I laughed and cried

I loved hearing the intimate details of the strong women behind the men in the family and the sensitive topics of life, death and war. Such a good listen - love hearing both of them back and forth telling their story.

Lifelong Democrat loved this book!

I am a die hard democrat who was surprised at how much I loved this book - and the Bush family! Politics aside, it was fascinating to get to know these young women and get a glimpse into their relationships with their famous parents and grandparents. It was also great to hear them read their own stories. Jenna is a slightly better “performer” than her super smart sis, but that’s all part of their story. I came away loving the family though still dislike many of their political views. Fun little listen!

Love of family!

What a surprising great book. Made me love the Bush family more than what I ever thought I would. Despite any of your political views, this book will give insight of the human everyday life of people may be part of "the commander in chief" family.

All the tears!

This book took me completely by surprise! I absolutely loved learning about the Bush family and loved hearing it right from Barbara and Jenna’s voices. I cried all the way thru! It’s precious!

private insight on public view

Wonderful private view of a sweet public family. I enjoy the love and respect that each family member has for one another. In some ways, the book was a thank you note to all those who have served the First Family too. The girls seem to have a greater respect for those who helped them along the way and the reflection was captured in their love for one another.
