This book was good because it had a mixture of stories that make you think,laugh,cry, and that just make you plan happy. I read it as a kid and loved it. For years now I've been reading many Chicken Soup books.

I love this book! I thought it was much better then Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul. Really it was better then all of the Chicken Soup books I ever picked up and read. This is suprising considering it's for the "kids" sould. Honestly it's for anyone. The stories are inspiring, sad, heartbreaking, funny, etc and to top it off they're true! It's a great book and one of the first books that opened my eyes up to the YA book world!

Chicken Soup for the Kids Soul is an inspirational book for kids. There are stories by many great kids like you. Also, celebrities have written about tough situations. Some celebrities are Danielle Fishel, Kenan and Kel, Shaq, Roald Dahl, and others.


Chicken Soup deals with issues like death, happiness, friends, family, and even violence. Some stories are Kenan Thompson gets detention, Kels in a gang, an aunt getting Alzheimers, and more. Youll learn, laugh, and cry.


Chicken Soup for the Kids Soul will help you through the good times and the bad times too. I recommend it for kids 8 and up. I rate it 3 stars for good stones, but sometimes getting preachy. If you enjoy Chicken Soup for the Kid's Soul, check out other Chicken Soup books, any books by Free Spirit Publishing, and any Meg Cabot novels (not including Jenny Carroll). These books are inspirational and feel-good.
