1: Good stories to read with your preteen.
It is sometimes hard to find things to do with your preteen. They are at an age when they want more independence from mom and dad. This book is a great connection - you can cozy up and read a few selections at a time - it's a great way to have fun, and spend time bonding with your preteen. You can then use the stories, or lessons learned for great conversation pieces for discussion.

2: really helpful!
My parents are divorced and reading about how other kids dealt with it really helped me get back on my feet even though they've been divorced for like four years. Reading about how other kids got out of bad situations made me feel lucky because now I know how much worse they have it opposed to me. I know it's hard to deal with these things at first but too many kids dwell on how it stinks to have divorced parents and they don't use this time to try to do something to help yourself or something. If you want to make a difference get off your butt and try to make that difference.

3: Great book for young people and their parents.
We just got this book and have been reading one story per day, right after dinner while we're still sitting at the table. The children love it and so do we. The real life stories are very inspiring and help the children focus the positive. Helps give them "can do" attitudes. Highly recommended for pre-teens.

4: lunch Bunch Book Review
Chicken Soup for the Preteen Soul is by kids from all over, but printed by Jack Canfield, Patty Hanson, Mark Victor Hanson, and Irene Dunlap. Kids sent in stories about death, friendship, achieving dreams, obsticals, love, attitude, choices, wisdom, changes, tough stuff, etc. I am in the 6th grade and I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to see how other kids are going through stuff just like you. There are parts in here that make you cry, laugh, angry, and even want to make you dissolve! If you are between the ages of 8 and 20 you should read this book. The reason I love this book is because you can really relate to what other kids wrote. Another reason is because it's not a story that's made up, but people who free-willingly wrote stories that changed their lives. I know anyone would love this book.

5: Chicken Soup is good for different kinds of people
My dad had bought for me the book "Chicken Soup for the Preteen Soul". I enjoyed the book because the stories were real. Now, I like looking at people's opinions for books after I read them. I like to see negative opinions first. Now, I would like to say that I except these people's comments. I would like to explain something. There are many people in this world who have different reactions to different things. Some people are sensitive to sad stories more than others. Some people are afraid and worried about sad stories\ scary stories than other people. So... just because you, your daughter, you son or anyone else is afraid or sensitive about some story doesn't mean it's a bad book. It just means that you or your relative shouldn't read these kind of stories. I want to say something about the book. I'd like to say that I am also sensitive to sad stories but these stories here teach lessons. Like about death. Always say "I love you" to your loved ones because you never know what can happen between now and tomorrow. "Chicken Soup" has stories of knowing between right and wrong, stories about good friends and so many other stories with lessons. Though, I'll confess. There are one or two stories that are not for our age and things that I'd rather not hear but when I get to the next story I try to forget the bad story and I do because the good stories have so many feelings and emotions in them that I forget about all the bad stories that I read. I reccommend this book to anyone because this book has lessons that us, preteens need to know about.
