Laura & Jenna Bush to pen biography about George W. Bush
http://www.usatoday.com/life/books/news/2007-08-08-bush-book_N.htm?csp=34

First lady, Jenna Bush to write children's book

By Bob Minzesheimer, USA TODAY
First lady Laura Bush and daughter Jenna Bush are writing a children's book about a boy who doesn't like to read. It is based on their experiences as teachers.

HarperCollins plans to announce today that it will publish the as-yet-untitled picture book next spring. It will be illustrated by Denise Brunkus, who's best known for her drawings in the popular Junie B. Jones series.


With Bush's popularity of what like 22% - who the hell is buying this book. I hope they didn't give them a million dollars like they did with Mary Cheney.

12. That jumped out at me, too...
If you're going to claim teaching experience (let alone enough experience to write a book based on it, for god's sake!), don't you need to be a teacher for, oh I don't know, at least more than 5 minutes?

5. I believe
Mary Cheney's book started out in the bargain bin and went downhill from there.

Surely the first lady sees the irony (comedy) in her book? Yes?

9. How about one about a spoiled, whiny, psychotic kid who keeps reading while his country explodes?
And then blames it all on the kid who was in the room before?
