1st answer: In a book, the author is trying to teach you a lesson. When there is a book about friendship, the theme is friendship.

2nd answer: It means what the story is telling you, for example the story can be telling people to always be truthful.

It's the moral, or the lesson of the story.

3rd answer: The theme of a story is the topic what the story is all about. For example the recurring problem in a book. Don't confuse this with the motif of a story. These are recurring elements of the story (a bit similar to the theme), but a story has one theme and multiple motifs.
