Jenna Bush Phones Home.

Jenna Bush, one of the twins belonging to George Dubya and Laura Bush, appeared on the Ellen show today to tout her new book about a young woman living with AIDS (more details at end of post), who she met while working with UNICEF in Panama.

Ellen quickly challenged Jenna to phone home – to the White House. And of course, hilarity ensued.

By 17, Ana has a child of her own (HIV-negative) and is struggling to survive.

The book consists of 102 chapters, some as short as a few sentences, and includes 49 pictures from Mia Baxter. The book also consists of 35 pages of information about UNICEF and AIDS-prevention.
