Reviews for Chicken Soup for the Soul

[ladycato · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This is a biased review, as my own story is included on page 268.Just for Preteens feels a lot more negative than other Chicken Soup books, but the prevailing message is one of hope. No matter how awkward you feel, or how bullied, or how messed up things are at home, things will get better. The book brought up a lot of old memories for me--some good, some bad--but it's a solid book because it does cover such a variety. I think I would have found this book to be an enormous comfort back when I was ten. Alas, it was published two decades too late for me.
