  <default_description>This book, the latest in the hugely popular Chicken Soup for the Soul series, contains stories,  poems, and cartoons relating to the specific troubles that traumatize teenagers everywhere. There are plenty  of stories about dating (&quot;HE KISSED MY TEETH!&quot;), friendships (don't gossip), and school.  But &lt;I&gt;Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul&lt;/I&gt; doesn't shy away from the big issues either, with essays on  suicide, dying young, and drunk driving. This book stems from the knowledge that teens know their own  concerns best&amp;#151;thus, much of the book is written by teens themselves, which gives the book a very  accessible, informal tone. Also, the authors had each piece evaluated by as many teenagers as possible. The  care shows. &lt;I&gt;Teenage Soul&lt;/I&gt; is always respectful, and doesn't minimize any of the dramas of  adolescence. It does, however, mete out plenty of perspective. This wise, tender, funny book is filled with  wisdom useful to teens (and everybody else, too).</default_description>
