Summary: Overall a great book.
Review: I really enjoy the simple story and the message that it carried. I see myself as a little of all four characters and how I handle change. There is a lot of advice in the book. Reading some of the other reviews, the complained that there aren't any solutions. I think the solutions of how to deal with change is very individual. This book is good at helping you become aware of change and to show you to see change in a positive light. It is not a fix all book. Overall a great book.

Summary: Am I an idiot? Dr. Johnson thinks so.
Review: This book is so condescending and simplistic that I have to wonder who could possibly consider it helpful. Don't waste your money. There is nothing in this book's "message" that you can't figure out for yourself. I should add, if they start handing this out in your workplace you're probably about to be fired. Sell it on eBay and do your own thing!

Summary: Change Management
Review: This book should be required reading for any large company or small one, for that matter, that is anticipating a change in business or the way it does business. Change is inevitable, but for most "long-time" employees it is something to be resisted. I've worked at large companies and small ones as a consultant and the hardest thing for employees to handle is some kind of change in their everyday routine.If this book had been required reading for those employees, the change that was coming could have been handled much easier with better results. Seeing each of the characters' reactions to the disappearance of the cheese demonstrates to the employees their own reaction to the new management, computer system, software program, etc. They can see that change is going to happen so one should make the best of the situation instead of sitting forlornly stating, "That's not the way we've always done it." Or "This isn't as good as the old system." I've recommended the book to many of my friends and will continue to do so whenever I hear that someone is about to go through some kind of change.

Summary: Motivational
Review: This book is a simple parable about change. The important question is, does it make you think? It's a nice motivational (short) piece, but the analogies hold up. This easy-to-read books shows how people respond to change by following a couple of mice. Like the characters, Hem and Haw, we can get stuck in a rut. Or we can find the good that is waiting for us. This book can make you laugh at situations that normally create stress in our lives. Change interrupts our familiar patterns, but mentally stable people get past the phase and quickly go on the enjoy the future with all the opportunities that change can bring. I like this book, and it's a great little motivational piece.

Summary: A cute book, but with very little to think about
Review: The story of this book is cute enough: Two mice and two men find their supply of cheese slowly diminishing and decide to deal with or ignore the problem. The message of this book is extremely simple: People need to stay aware of changes in their lives and learn how to deal with change. For me, personally, the book had very little to offer. It was a good way to kill time during study hall. The message I agreed with but did not find especially enlightening or new to me. However, for some other people, this book did appear to affect them profoundly. I would suggest that people who are interested in this book but unsure of whether or not to read it go ahead and read it anyway. The book is simple, takes no time to read and very little intellect to process. Perhaps it will have a lasting effect on your life (in that case, congratulations!); perhaps it will not. Either way, the book takes hardly any effort to read, so even if you gain little or nothing from it, little time will have been wasted.

Summary: Laugh at yourself
Review: Several people told me to read this book so I finally did. Completed it in one flight, easy read, everything is obvious in hindsight. This book creates an easy way to confront fear and/of the unknown by using a simple common language. I live in San Francisco, this city is all about change and I have part of each of the characters in myself and in my friends. One quick read provided a new prospective. If you are moving, thinking of making a move, have moved or are living with someone who is I highly recommend this book. "What would you do if you were not afraid?"

Summary: Applys to everyday life as well as not so everyday Life.
Review: Simply put, this book is amazing. I've read this book about 15 times and I will keep reading
this book. Everytime I read it I walk away learning something new. This book has made me realize that the world is based on how you
as an individual perceive it... and you are the only one who
can change it for yourself.

Summary: They moved it to the school!
Review: Well, our teacher used this book for our school graduation, to attempt to help us adjust to change. It was an interesting metaphor, and I had never known that I had been going to "Cheese Station Crestwell" for all these years. Shortly after graduation, I read the book. It's interesting, and I reccomend it to anyone who's having a change in their life.
