Reader reviewed by looneytunez8

This book is inspiring. It helps out with so many
problems that you, or somebody else, may have. It offers good advice, as well. Some celebrities wrote stories in this book. Topics include of deaths in the family, first dates, and other topics. I wouldn't recomend this book for children under 10 since som topics are a little inappropiate for children under 10.

This book provided o.k. advice. I thought some of it was to juvinile, and some was to mature.

It would be a good book to browse through at the libary or bookstore, but I wouldn't buy it.

I wouldn't advise any kids under 10 to read it. Some content has kissing, touching, etc.

I loved reading this book, the death and dying section made me cry! I helps you through problems and sometimes tells you what to expect in the near future...your teenage years! I would definately recommend this to someone trying to prepate for teen years.

The stories in this book hit home one too many times. It really makes a kid realize they're not the only one. I really liked the uplifting stories of real people. They made me smile and cry at the same time. Chicken Soup for The Soul books, in my opion are some of the best books out there. I think this one was my all time favorite. The poems and quotes in it were funny. I recommend it and it's a quick read. You can blow right through it.

Ahh..a perfect book for preteens going through middle school or junior high. It is a collection of true stories written by preteens on issues like bullying, cliques, and crushes. In addition it also deals with difficult choices, parent divorces, and deaths. Has perfect lessons on the meaning of friendship and growing up.

Walking to classes in 7th grade, I was always armed with this book. Inspiring and humorous, it helps you through the period when you're no longer a kid but also not yet a teenager. It encourages you to acheive your dreams and shares helpful advice from other preteens who've been there before.

This is something every preteen should NOT be without with.

I thought this book had some really bad, sad, happy, wanna make ya cry memories in it. But I'm glad that people can share these kinds of things with us and let us know that it really hurts inside. I think the reason I did'nt injoy this book as much is because I did'nt have the same problem as these people did. I would recommend this book for anyone who is having a bad time coping with parents divorce, death of a loved one, or serious truble in their life.

This book lives up to its title, Preteen Soul. It isn't really for older teens, but they might enjoy it. It has a number of stories from tweens, teens and adults that will help you along in a number of situations!
