The Chicken Soup books started out being entertaining and sometimes inspiring stories on a particular theme. The stories honored mothers, fathers, grandparents, siblings and friends. They moved on to being educational and motivational using themes like dieting, stress relief, exercise and fitness and more. Recently, titles on medical issues are in the works--back problems for one. And now help and support for caregivers and parents of children with disabilities have been included.
