A friend of mine gave me a copy of Who Moved My Cheese? and I loved the message so much I want to share it with everyone! I saw on the backcover there was a Teen version (still straight to the point, but relative for the life of a teen, not an adult in the working world...) I just had to get this copy for my daughter and I'm really glad I did. She enjoyed it and got the message, too, so now when life throws her a curve she can say, Someone moved my cheese! and my reply is, Time to find some better cheese! You have to read the book to get it, but it's really a fun, simple, yet enlightening book. Easy to read and brief. If you're thinking of buying this for your teen, just read it yourself first if you haven't read the adult version of Who Moved My Cheese? I highly recommend it for any age from Pre-teen to Retirement Age!Read full review
I bought this for my 13 year old daughter. With the many changes she is going through, I though this might "hit the spot" for understanding that change is constant and global. She started the book and had it read within a couple hours, and remarked it was a great book and she hopes to pass it on to a couple of her friends who are dealing with extreme changes in their family life. I recommend those who enjoy "Chicken Soup" books to read and enjoy this book also.
Although the book is an excellent reference and guide for the troubling times of a teenager and adults, the prologue and the epilogue are "CHEEZY." Sorry, I couldn't help myself. The intro and ending are so archetypical white, middle-class teenage dialogue which, in my long experience as a teacher, never happens. I will choose to NOT read the prologue or the epilogue to my students because it is trite and condescending.
I was so taken by the adult version of this book that I bought this one to share with my youth group. The kids have devoured the book and written papers on the book for their home class of their own volition. I want to use this book as tool for to teach the youth to go after their dreams. I certainly wished I had a copy in my teens.
Loved the original copy. Had my neice and nephew read my copy, so I decided to by this Teen copy for them. They are constantly referring to where they are in regards to the various stations and which character they identify with. Great tale for those who are suffering from a lack of motivation and for those who take things for granted.
