And until you turn 18, like it or not, it''s just about your whole life. So what''s the deal? Chicken Soup for the Soul knows that school is more than classes and tests. It''s also a social scene, filled with cliques, clubs and life-changing decisions (or so it seems this week). It''s where you meet your best friends…and run into your worst enemies.

Sometimes it''s overwhelming and confusing, but don''t worry, it''s like that for everyone. That''s what the stories in this book are all about. They’re from real teens, and they''re about the bizarre, embarrassing and sometimes triumphant things that really happened to them. And they’re here to give you some perspective on everything that goes down at your school...and outside of it, too. Put that together with weird facts, cool graphics, fun advice and quizzes designed to help you figure out who you are and what you''re up to, and you''ve got the real deal on school—full of all the laughter, tears and daily drama that life is all about.

This new Chicken Soup book offers a heartwarming and uplifting collection of stories that celebrate the lifelong bond of sisterhood. Whether they share this special connection with someone through genetics or the heart, only a sister can understand the complex, deep and dynamic relationship they share with loved ones as they journey together through the stages of life. For younger sisters who look up to an older one, older siblings who tolerate a younger sister tagging along, or the brother who knows full well that girls can wrestle as well as any boy can, this book celebrates the sisters in our lives. It conveys how sisters influence us during life''s most defining moments: helping us face the schoolyard bully; providing wise counsel during our first crush and subsequent comfort after the breakup; and refusing to reveal intimate secrets to parents or friends. With real-life stories from celebrities and everyday sisters-next-door, chapters include: On Love, Insights and Lessons, Sibling Rivalry, Overcoming Obstacles, The Bond Between Sisters, Sisters by Heart, On Family (Brothers, Too!), and Special Memories and Traditions. While they may not live under the same roof, act in the same manner or even get along without an occasional spat, nothing creates a more special and lasting bond than sisterhood. Now there''s a book to celebrate that bond.
