Lessons of love, friendship, family, and self-esteem are told with great frankness and thoughtfulness, and in my opinion, every teenager should read this book! (  )vaillance | Apr 27, 2009 |   This book was very well written. All the stories posted by teenagers like me, alllowed myself to open up to what they were explaining about. Pretty much what Im saying is this book is a great read. And it can really remind you of who you are. (  )okmliteracy7 | Feb 13, 2009 | It's a really good book about real kids and real stories. ( )MrsGClass | Feb 9, 2009 | A good book about the troubles of teenagers. (  )ekirkham24 | Jan 6, 2009 | So although I didn’t read this whole entire book I did read a couple of interesting stories. I thought that this book was a very good book for as much as I read from it. I would really recommend it to people that like to read about true stories and also to people that like poetry because there is a lot of poetry in it. It’s full of relationship stuff and stuff about life. It can help almost anyone while they are in a hard time.

Amazon.com (ISBN 0439078415, Hardcover)This book, the latest in the hugely popular Chicken Soup for the Soul series, contains stories, poems, and cartoons relating to the specific troubles that traumatize teenagers everywhere. There are plenty of stories about dating ("HE KISSED MY TEETH!"), friendships (don't gossip), and school. But Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul doesn't shy away from the big issues either, with essays on suicide, dying young, and drunk driving. This book stems from the knowledge that teens know their own concerns best—thus, much of the book is written by teens themselves, which gives the book a very accessible, informal tone. Also, the authors had each piece evaluated by as many teenagers as possible. The care shows. Teenage Soul is always respectful, and doesn't minimize any of the dramas of adolescence. It does, however, mete out plenty of perspective. This wise, tender, funny book is filled with wisdom useful to teens (and everybody else, too).(retrieved from Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:58:03 -0400) The first test round has been closed.
