How Being ‘Sisters First’ Helped Bush Twins Survive The Spotlight

Jenna Bush Hager and her twin sister Barbara Pierce Bush come from a political dynasty as the children of former President George W. Bush and the grandchildren of former President George H.W. Bush.

In 2017, the former first sisters released a memoir about their years growing up in the spotlight in both the Texas Governor's mansion and the White House. It's called Sisters First: Stories from Our Wild and Wonderful Life.

Now they've written a children's book highlighting the unique relationship sisters often have.

It's called, simply, Sisters First, and, in the audio above, they tell Houston Matters producer Michael Hagerty, that growing up they felt lucky to have a partner to help them get through everything they experienced as children in the spotlight.

They'll be in Houston for an event with Blue Willow Bookshop this Saturday at 7 p.m. at Memorial Drive Presbyterian Church.
