Who Moved My Cheese? for Teens

Simplicity takes center stage in this metaphoric manual for understanding the dynamics of change. In less than 100 pages of large print and rather wide margins, Spencer Johnson, MD, dilutes his original, adult-oriented, self-help bestseller of the same name, to guide teens through the intricate maze called life. The writing is repetitive and whole pages are devoted to bumper-sticker/post-it note type memos that summarize the wisdom of each chapter. It is highly dubious that a teen will be able to "change and win" by reading this book. Tedious and stale.

“Who Moved My Cheese?” gives all teens going through hard times inspiration. Teenagers (myself included) have a lot on their plates and are constantly in stressful situations. The book itself is a metaphor. The underlying meaning is, if you want something you must go and get it. I was able to apply most of the philosophies in this book to my life. The mice in the book must adapt to changes, as I must adapt to changes in my life. I learned when a change that I do not like takes place I cannot sulk and be upset. Instead of doing these things I must make the best of every situation and work hard to succeed. Before reading this book I hated change and became stressed out when even the simplest changes occurred. Now I know change is a show more good thing and by learning to adapt with change I can become successful. I recommend this book to any person that is having difficulty with change. Though the title limits the book to teens I believe anyone should read it. show less

This is a must read for everyone. Change is a constant phenomenon in life and that is why this wonderful parable how to deal with it can be of great help to people. It describes change in one's work and life, and four typical reactions to said change with two mice Sniff and Scurry, two "little people" Ham and Haw, and their hunts for their cheese which stands for the important things in their lives. Not only is this little story motivational, but a lot of fun, too. A lot of readers have already improved their lives with this book, so why not you?

Who Moved My Cheese teen edition is a thought provoking book that tells the story of four mice whom overcome thoughts/fears in order to adapt to change.

In this parable, the speaker Chris shares a story with his classmates that changes all of their lives. Two mice, two little people, chesse, and a maze are metaphors that are used to illustrate the different responses to change. This is a great book for teenagers who will soon make the transition into adulthood and face life long decision making.

Just as great as the one for adults. I had a high school class read this out loud last year. Hopefully something will come back to help at least one of them one day!

It was really simplistic and lame. And quite dumb. This is for TEENS, not kindergarteners. Puh-lease.
