My teenage daughter loves this Bible. I have been looking for a Bible that would get her interest for quite some time. This one teaches her a lot and she enjoys just reading it for pleasure to...
The major issue I have with the bible is the way that the concordance is organized. For teens that do not know thier bible well (which in most cases they are trying to learn it) I find that only...
Read one... you've read them all. Or at least... that's how it should be with "divine prophecies". If you want to make use of your brain again... go find a nice freethinkers book and rediscover...
I use this bible with my special needs teens and young adults Sunday school class. It is very easy to understand and has great hints for applications in everyday life.

Yea, Extreme is a lame word in popular culture. Congratulations to everybody who thought their acknowledgement of this was impressive. And yo, kid who was cool enough to use the word "excruciating"...
My husband and I were looking for a book to help our children, ages 8 and 5, understand the concept and value of money. We had started an allowance but felt like they were more eager to spend the...
this book was purchased by me for my granddaughter. i read the book before giving it to her for her birthday she has read it and tells she finds it very helpful and has shared some of the book...
I have read any other reviews, so here's what I have to this. Quite simply, this book sucks. I had to read it this year at the age of 15, and let me tell you, everything McGraw says is wrong. He is...
I read this book after The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens, and though Life Strategies has some good points, I thought 7 Habits was a much better book.
We were very disappointed to discover that this Bible is missing a number of pages throughout the New Testament, including some from the book of James and the books of 1 and 2 Thessalonians.
This is the perfect beginners study Bible. The only negative is the idiotic font used to identify the names of each book of the Bible on each page. This makes it vey hard to conduct any type...
I am a counselor and I buy these cheap on Amazon and give them to clients. They LOVE them a learn a lot from them! Great book for any teen! I reccommend the workbook also!!
This book is such a great book. I'm using it with a group of high school juniors and seniors as a textbook for a course. The course helps students with disabilities plan for their future.
I bought this miniature addition, intending to give it as a gift, but discovered when it arrived that it was not the complete edition of the original book. I really wanted the whole book, so...
the seller should have stated that the exercises/activities had already been completed (in black marker, no less)rendering those activities useless to me. the book had writing in it throughout,...
These ideas are active, door-opening way to help teens. Many parents and professionals assume that therapy is always the "fix", which can often only make teens feel different, abnormal, and...

I read this book after The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens, and though Life Strategies has some good points, I thought 7 Habits was a much better book.
This must have been a tough book to write. The authors chose a daunting subject--the Unreal scripting language--and attempted to present it to an audience unprepared for its complexities. That...
This book really made me mad! Celia was obviously a tramp in the book. She slept with Nicky on their second date and they had known each other for ONE WEEK! Unrealistic! Then he abandoned her and...
This book called Prom Time by Bobbie Weiss, and David Weiss is a good book. This book has two main characters Sabrina and Libby. They are fighting over who is going to be the ball of the party....
I enjoyed this book, but it was not as good as most Sabrina books. Sabrina is mad that Libby is making the prom unfair, so she uses a fair wind potion. But she doesn't read the fine print, and...
Our teen years are always difficult, sometimes devastating. While there are no magic elixirs or free pass to get a young person through these tumultuous times, there are some healing balms to...
From major league to little leaguers, from hockey stars to figure skaters, and from horseracing to mushing, the stories in this book highlight the positive and...
Most of these stories are the typical feel-good, not quite realistic stories you'd expect from an inspirational book. Sure they may have real-life meaning, but the stories themselves are mostly...

Powerful and Inspiring stories introduced by the masters of potential story telling! I've been seeking some good books to give to young people to inspire them - especially now during this...
This book was an OK book. One thing i didn't like about it was there was really no point to the book. This book had many different stories throughout the book. Some of the stories were good and...
This book really did not meet my expectations. I really did not learn anything like the cover implies I would, and the stories were all so tragic. I got depressed after reading it. Other that that...
This book was amazing.I loved it b/c it was uplifting and inspirational I would advise anyone who's thinking about purchasing this book to think no longer b/c your definetly getting your money's...
Amanda's Review of Chicken Soup for the Teen's Soul on Love & Friendship
I like the Chicken Soup for the Soul books, and I liked this one in particular because it was written for teens. It was, I believe, the first one I read for teens, and I enjoyed reading very much...
Young readers, especially boys, will love this story
Gary Soto, author of Accidental Love, offers another helpful work of fiction to teenagers stuck in the dramas of puberty, young love, and physical education classes. Mercy on These Teenage Chimps...
First Crossing, a collection of ten first-person narratives, tells the stories of teen-age immigrants to the United States. While the stories in this collection cover diverse immigration...
I was required to read this book for school, and found it throughly depressing. Its a series of short stories about teen immigrants, most of which end in sadness. Don't buy unless you like...
First Crossing Have you ever felt out of place? Have you ever tired to fit in, tried to figure out how the world works? The book "First Crossing" edited by Donald R. Gallo, are stories...
Gaines should be put in the same category as Taliban. I grew up in Bergenfield, did lines with the Buress sisters', Olton, and Rizzo at Garvey's house. Yes, alot of children back then did waste...
As a baby-bust kid raised in Bergenfield, I found Ms. Gaines conclusions pretty much on the mark. However, her constant references to herself were not relevent to the topic. Growing up in the...
Religious beliefs are trumped by homosexual beliefs?
Homosexuality for a christian young person who does not share the beliefs of this book will find it's very one sided, and at one point acutally states that God hates homosexuals. This could not be...
In addition to a number of colleagues recommending this book over the years, recently at a symposium this resource was deemed as the "turning point in US sexuality education." Quite a claim, so...
Though this book is VERY informative, I hesitate to encourage people to hand it over to their teen, especially teens younger than 15. The book is much a "how to" book. How to have sex, what an...
and this book has several in it. I am always interested in other peoples stories. Some of the couples in here are so darn cute. You can just tell they belong together. At any rate, it is nice to...
This book was perfect for our teen with diabetes. It was very thorough & easy to understand. My teen liked the stories about other teenagers & actually read it herself!
As ACCELERATION won the Edgar Award for Best Young Adult Mystery, you'd expect its strength to be plot. Instead, I submit that characterization carries the day in this book. The plot is a bit too...
In the book, "Acceleration," a seventeen-year-old boy named Duncan is forced to take a job as an assistant in the Toronto Transit Commission's lost and found. After recently dealing with the death...
Interesting plot, but not well set up. The author kind of rushes you into the story without setting up the characters. I think that the main character was a bit too moronic for me to believe....
Gail Giles' DEAD GIRLS DON'T WRITE LETTERS has a great opening line: "Things had been getting a little better until I got a letter from my dead sister." It's like Frito Lays after that -- bet you...
Okay, there are twists (and I won't give them away), but this story is very familiar and the story never rises above mediocre. It might be good to a reader 12 or under, but any high school student...
I checked this book out at our middle school library. I didn't understand the title, and you wouldn't either. It starts off with Sunny Reynolds whose mother is in severe depression and spends her...
The story became unrealistic with all of the twists and turns. She put forth a big effort to keep the reader in suspense, but ending up confusing us more. I enjoyed reading the book, because of...
Sherlock Holmes made his debut in "A Study in Scarlet", a novella first published in 1887. He and his sidekick, Doctor John H Watson, appeared in over fifty mysteries together. "The Hound of the...
The baskervilles has an interesting history and when Sir Charles Baskerville the 1 of the last living or was 1 of the last living decendents of the Baskervilles is found dead on the grounds of...
The name of my book is Hound of The Baskervilles. In this book the main character is sir Charles Baskervilles. He is a very important man then one night he dies. But he was found dead out side...
I love reading mysteries, especially the type where you get to figure out the mystery by looking at the clues. I have read books like this before and I was hoping to be quite entertained by this...
It's a mystery how some of these answers were created
I *love* those figure-it-out mystery stories, where you have to riddle through a situation and figure out what happened. I was very disappointed, however, when I grabbed this book to entertain...
