I am a big fan of the Chicken Soup series, so I was thrilled to find this on the shelf just in time for my 11 year old daughter's birthday. She is at such a tough age...too old for Barbies, too young for boys. We both love reading and rereading the stories in this book. For me they bring back memories of being that age. For her they help to make it an exciting age that she's looking forward to remembering when she grows up. Another great book by The Soup Team. You won't be disappointed!
