:) Give your teenager something worth reading. My daughter started reading this book at age 12, and has had it for 2 years. She still loves to go back and read selections of love, hope, courage.
I think it's nice to find reading materials that can move the minds and feelings of teenagers. She even cried reading it. I bought this book as a gift for my 16yr old niece. The very next day, she told me how much she loved the book.
She was so happy to get it, since she had the one for pre-teens also and really liked it. I skimmed through the book before I gave it to my granddaughter who just turned 13. I thought it had some well written stories that a teenager can relate to and a lot of food for thought.
Also a source of good talking points for those anxiety ridden moments or social issues teens face. Teens I have given it to as a gift have loved it and purchased the next in the teen series. Once again, "Chicken Soup for the Soul" books has a hit. This is a wonderful gift for young teens with its easy read of short stories on pertinent topics and experiences teens face.
I suggest it to all teacher to make the same with a nice calm background music. I am a teacher in two high schools and I like to read the stories of the book to my students from time to time to inspirate them and reinforce their teenage self esteem.
