Rating: 5 stars
Summary: a fun and interesting perspective on dealing with change
Review: This was a fun look at change management that relates to all aspects of life - work, home, relationships, etc. I'm buying copies for everyone I know. A very quick read.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Face the identification crisis with this book.
Review: This book really forced me to look at myself and choose which character I really could identify with. It is fun to read, and before you know it, you are really getting useful information out of it. How you apply it to your own life, is up to you. But it is a great start!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A classic must read tale that should be shared
Review: This book is important. Lessons in life about change is learned. The message will hit you where it counts.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very flexible, suitable for all ages and all walks of life
Review: Buy this book if you've ever heard of the KISS concept (Keep It Simple Stupid!) Its a great way for adults and children to learn and deal with change. As well, it is great pre-emptive book to prepare anybody for the inevitable arrival of change in everybody's life. The book has a very logital flow which allows for self-interpretation and analysis. I strongly recommend this book!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Simple but not simplistic.
Review: I read it twice and then I put it on audio tape so I can listen while driving. Since I'm an audio learner, the book's message penetrates even deeper into my conciousness. I'm about to retire so I know "my cheese" (which is going to the office every morning) will soon be moved. Dr. Johnson reminds me through his strory that the success of my retirement will depend on how well I plan for it. I already know where my "new" cheese is located.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Change agents NEED this book, as do those who must change!
Review: For the past few years I've been on a geographically dispersed team tasked with developing a system of processes. These included one to manage change. I led the project to change my 180-member organization to follow the processes. This book is EXCELLENT!!! It should be required reading for upper and middle management, especially those who have their paradigms so firmly entrenched in their ears and their blinders on so tightly that they can't see that yesterday's successes won't build tomorrow's. Every member of an organization would profit, not only in their exciting corporate world, but in their private lives. I heartily recommend this book!!

Summary: Sometimes simple is best
Review: Even though a bit trite, this book has put into words the feelings we all have of insecurity and selfishness when it comes to making changes. It hurts to see the mice make the change without discussion, while we run in circles asking each other what it wrong. This book is alarmingly forthright. Certainly we all know what the lesson is, and what to do, but when it is put in the context of a parable it is harmless and therefore digestible. I loved this book, and will read it over and over until the simple message is absorbed. I plan to give it to my friends, as well as inspire others to get it. Simple, yes. But, also necessary.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: An insultingly simplistic homily about change in life
Review: "Who Moved My Cheese" makes its point - that we tend to be paralyzed with fear without justification over change - in its first two pages, then beats us unmercifully with it for another ninety-six. The gift of this book from a superior or coworker is tantamount to receiving a bottle of Scope anonymously. Save the 45 minutes you would spend reading this, update your resume, and get a new job. You got the same lesson, and didn't feel as if you'd just read "Winnie The Pooh Loses His Honey", which would no doubt be just as useful and not quite as insulting.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Liberating, encouraging, full of hope (an humor)
Review: Wow! I read it standing in the bookstore. Then I bought it, and another to give to my daughter, and another to circulate like a "chain letter (book)". And I'm not finished buying copies to give away. Then I started reading it out loud to friends. If you are breathing you need this book, to read and read and read... I want to meet the person who gives this less than 5 stars, and I'll write a book about them. If you don't read 2 more books in your life, this should be one of them.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Terrific! A must read.
Review: This book is very readable. I read it on a cross country flight in about 45 minutes. I then gave it to two of my associates who were travelling with me. By the time we got off the flight we're all discussing where we should be looking for the new cheese in our lives. The parable and following discussion are very relevent to life in the 1990's and beyond.
