Presidential daughters

The Bush girls have written a sweet and helpful letter to the Obama girls that is worth checking out: Playing House in the White House.

Can you imagine what it would be like if your parent was president? There are a couple of great teen series out right now that play with this idea:

The President's Daughter by Ellen Emerson White
Sixteen-year-old Meghan Powers' happy life in Massachusetts changes drastically when her mother, one of the most prestigious senators in the country, becomes the front-runner in the race for United States President.

First Daughter: Extreme American Makeover by Mitali Perkins
Once sixteen-year-old Sameera Righton's father is elected president of the United States, the adopted Pakistani-American girl moves into the White House and makes some decisions about how she is going to live her life in the spotlight.

What is the first thing you would do if your family moved into the White House?

I love The President's Daughter SO MUCH. As you probably know by now.
