Summary: My 4-year-old loved it...
Review: Although the idea behind this tale is good, the parable itself is sophomoric and simply goes on and on and ON AND ON... I was gripping my steering wheel in frustration and gritting my teeth: "Just get to the moral of the story, already!" (However, my 4-year-old sitting in the back seat found the story about the funny little men and the mice totally absorbing. This should tell you something.)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Gotta Find The Cheese!
Review: This is a very powerful little book and a very strong message!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THEY MOVED THE CHEESE FROM AFRICA A LONG TIME A GO!
Review: This is a very powerful metaphor,every one is left with the tusk of writting their own stories.Dr Spencer Johnson is like any odinary human being who clearly sees change within society.Technology is making serious changes in our lives today and those that are worried about security in E- commerce must know that the cheese is being moved slowly by those that face the changing economy.Here in Africa one can conclude that Africans have lost a sense of smell.Globalization requires us to have a new sense of smell inorder to re-invent our business practices.Thanks very hard Dr Spencer, all those that are jelousy of you cashing in lots of Dead Presidents, know that you took a simple but powerful metaphor to explain an obvious situation.Your book cannot be boring its either one is familiar with the situation or not.But hating the book is too extreme.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A little book with a big message - about change.
Review: At the end of the book one of the characters asks a group of others how many of them are afraid of change? A few people raise their hands. Then the character asks of the others how many know someone else who is afraid of change? Everyone raises a hand. So it is with this book. Everyone I know who has read it (including myself) says, "Well this is true, but not really applicable to me." Then you will immediatley buy more copies, or pass yours on to someone else. ;-) It's a good, insightful little book with an valuable message you will not soon forget.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: The best place to start for a perspective on change
Review: This book will not change your life.

But it is the first step to get you moving from a static view to a perspective that is ready for change.

To simple for you? Take the next step - read Value Migration by Adrian Slywotzky, a book that is built around the same core concept - change - but takes an in depth look from at how patterns of change value has resulted in value changing hands in several industries.

But you need to walk before you run. Pick this book up first and speed through it in half an hour. See if it gets your mind rolling.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: This book is not worth a piece of cheese
Review: Please do not waste your time and money on this book. It it outrageous that such a simple idea has received so much hype. Anyone with an ounce of common sense will get nothing new from this book. If my boss had given me this book to read I would have been so insulted that I would have immediately gone in search of new cheese!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: You Create Your Own Results
Review: This parable points out that accepting what is can cause us to settle for things that are not very good for us, such as easy access to our needs for the moment. Like the careful person who prepares for a rainy day, if we think through what must be done we can become more capable, more satisfied, and contribute more. Many people are working very hard to achieve things that are not very important to them, like money and greater size, while things that are really important, like family and self-satisfaction, receive little attention. Habits can be harmful, and I am reminded of "The 2,000 Percent Solution" which helps people create a heathier set of habits in their organizational life. You should read both to get the most out of your life

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: lifechanging possibilities
Review: It took me less than one hour to read Who Moved My Cheese? When I finished, I knew something about me had changed. If I had the money, I'd buy the book for every person I know. I passed it along to my daughter, as I see her, as an adult, dealing with change as inaffectively as I did at her age. I wish someone had passed it along to me years ago! Thanks Spencer Johnston for a great book!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Book so good,
Review: This is the most awesome book i have ever read and trust me ihave gone thru some major number of books in the last 2-3 years. Ijust can't help but sell my frineds on this books, ans as it happens most of the times they come back the next to thank me for talking about the book so enthusiactically. But as life would have it there are some people who would come back and have an tell me that this is what they had already knew and it was a waste of their time. You know what this is such an eye opener that the mesage is so obvious that even a blind man read this book and get something out of this book. But there are some intellectual ( in their own minds) who think that they know everything about everything.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: The mice may abandon the ship!
Review: I decided not to share this book with co-workers for fear they might take their cheese to a different employer!
