Kimberly Kirberger Knihy

Pokud naše děti a mládež, neboli jak už se dávno vžilo říkat - teenageři, něco nesnášejí, pak je to právě jalové kázání, poučování a "vychovávání". Stejně tak ovšem naopak zbožňují vyprávění, humorné příhody, hrdinské zkazky, a ač by to za živý svět nahlas nepřiznali - i kapku patosu a dojetí. Populární a zkušení tvůrci dnes již světoznámé Slepičí polévky pro duši se rozhodli obrátit se k mladým lidem právě touto cestou. Rozesmát je, pobavit, přimět k zamyšlení, a nenápadně je tak dovést k poznání, že výchova nemusí být nutně jen nudnou a nebetyčně otravnou záležitostí, za jakou ji obvykle považují. Posbírali úctyhodné množství skutečných příběhů skutečných mladých lidí, jejichž dojemná opravdovost je fenoménem, jaký nedokáže napodobit ani nejgeniálnější spisovatel. Kniha byla ve Spojených státech přijata s ohromujícím úspěchem. Kupovali ji nejenom rodiče svým dětem, ale houfně si o ni psali sami teenageři.
