Sister, Brother, Family

By Willie Nelson, Chris Barton, Bobbie Nelson

Book Overview

The first ever children's book by music legend Willie Nelson and his sister and bandmate Bobbie Nelson

"We had so little money, but so much love."

He was a boy with a guitar. She was a girl with a piano. Raised by loving grandparents in Depression-era rural Texas, their humble beginnings playing local shows to put food on the table started Willie and Bobbie Nelson on a remarkable path to global stardom. In a story filled with details of a childhood in rural Texas--with church socials, general stores, and town dances--Willie and Bobbie weave together an inspiring story of a long-ago time. With triumphs and tragedies, hard work and determination, here is a deeply personal, gorgeously-written, and profoundly moving tale of hope.

Customer Reviews

Sweet book about the unbreakable bond between a younger brother & his "liitle sister."

My Grandparents & Great Grandparents were also from Texas "Hill Country," and told of the joys & tragedies from living that part of the country. "Sister, Brother, Family" tells what shaped the Nelson siblings to persevere & not only survive, but creating a memorable legacy, as family.
