The classic, bestselling title today’s parents grew up with—Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul 25th Anniversary Edition has been refreshed and updated with additional, new stories to help today’s teens be the happiest, best versions of themselves.

It’s time to discover who you really are, feel empowered, define how the world sees you, and become more forgiving of family and friends…and yourself.

It’s still mostly about people. That’s why this book starts with chapters on Relationships, Friendship, Family, and Love and Kindness, and then moves on to Learning, Tough Stuff, and Making a Difference. And finally—because you’re looking to the future—a chapter on Going for It.

You’re not alone. When you listen to these stories about the lives of other teens, you’ll realize you share many experiences and emotions. That is so empowering and comforting.

That’s why this collection of stories for teenagers is one of our most popular books ever, now updated for its 25th anniversary–with three dozen new stories for you—including ones about being a teenager during the pandemic, social media and technology, and many other modern-day issues.

Chicken Soup for the Soul books are 100% made in the USA and each book includes stories from as diverse a group of writers as possible. Chicken Soup for the Soul solicits and publishes stories from the LGBTQ community and from people of all ethnicities, nationalities, and religions.
