Chicken Soup For the Preteen Soul

I highly recommend this book! I am an 11 year old and it's so nice to know that other pre-teens know what it's like to go through the "tough stuff"!! I loved this book and if your also a pre-teen out there and is strugling I would recomend this book to you! It will become your best friend and you will love it!

NO OTHER BOOK LIKE THIS

THIS BOOK IS GREAT. I'M A PRE-TEEN AND IT TAUGHT ME THAT OTHER KIDS ARE GOING THROUGH THE SAME THINGS I AM AND THEY KNOW HOW I FEEL. I RECENTLY LOST SOMEONE SPECIAL TO ME AND THOUGHT NONE COULD UNDERSTAND BUT THEY DO. IT ALSO TALKS ABOUT HOW YOU SHOULD START TO APPRECIATE WHAT YOU HAVE. IT TALKS ABOUT FRIENDS, TOUGH STUFF, FAMILY, AND CRUSHES. I KNOW THAT EVERY PRE-TEEN RELATES TO AT LEAST ONE STORY IN EACH OF THESE CATAGORIES.

Great Book

Recently I purchased Chicken Soup for the Preteen Soul. I have just turned 11 years old. So far, I have enjoyed my newest Chicken Soup book. I have already received Chicken Soup for the Kids Soul as a gift, but now I believe I am growing out of it. I am almost a teenager who is going through her preteen years. This book has helped me find myself inside myself. I really love the authors who write Chicken Soup and the contributors who send in their funny, sad, and meaningful stories. This book talks about changes in life, getting older, the tough stuff we go through as preteens. My favorite stories are the ones of the people who are actually in their preteen years and how they deal with this tough time in their lives. Overall, I enjoy the book very much.

A very Soulful and deep book.

I love this book ! It helped me and many preteens through the hard times together. This book is like a Best Friend. You feel like you have "Shared experiences" with it so when something occours in your life, this book has stories about it to comfort you and help you through your troubles. This book was origanally supposed to be Chicken Soup for the Kids Soul 2, but they got so many letters saying they need a preteen book that they changed the name and added a few different stories. I found out that, when I read the Kids soul, It was too babyish for me and the Teen soul was a bit too mature for me( I am 11 years old). So thats how they created teh preteen sould for ages 9-13.I highly recommend this to you and every strugguling preteen out there. You can even read this book just for comfort if you wish. Please make some time to read this book.Thank you.
