Rating: Summary: Great Book Review: This book is fantastic. This book teaches a teen, or a child, and even could teach an adult a thing or two, how to live better, treat others better, and get your way in a win-win way. This book also has comics that explain much, are funny, and well animated. By this I mean the comics of the book, not others they use. Sean Covey also shares some of his stories, and the stories of others explaining his point in that page. It also has quotes and poems. This is not a book that you can use to become an expert. The subject is intangible. However, I can tell you a little about what I learned: First of all, you need to be proactive, not reactive. Reactive is when you act on all your emotions and is the cause of being rash and making rash decisions. So, don't do that. You must not be too centered on something, like yourself or others. There is much more, so read the book.

Rating: Summary: 7 habits of highly effective teens review Review: The reason why I read the 7 Habits of the Highly Effective Teens is because it was a class assignment our teacher had given us. Before I read the book I thought it would be intresting because of the book's title. When I finished the book I realized that I had the right thoughts about the book. I felt it was intresting and appealing to my age group. I believe that teens and parents should read this book because it will help both parent and child in different ways to be better people. In conclusion it is a very good book and everyone should read it not just teens. Kimberly
Rating: Summary: what I think Review: I read this book as a class assignment. I had never heard of this book before until my teacher introduced it to us. I didn't have a choice if I wanted to read it or not, it was for a grade. When I heard the tittle I thought it was another boring book. It would just give you the facts without any excitement on the way.I thought that I would find myself asleep while reading it. After I red this book it wasn't as boring as I thought. It was very interesting especially when they had stories of other teens going through the same thing. It wan't the most exciting book I have ever read but it wasn't boring either. I would recommend this book to every teen because it has important lessons we all can learn from. It teaches us how to build better relationships, discover your talents, accomplish your goals, the importance of working together, etc. This book will inspire you, and teach you important lessons.

Rating: Summary: the 7 habits Review: The reason why I read this book was because it was a assignment in class so, I had to read the book. What I had thought at the beginning was," why do I have to read this book". What I think now is," I am glad my teacher gave me this book to read". I would recommend this book to many parents so they can understand teenagers more.

Rating: Summary: Great Book For Adults Too--Forget His Father's Book Review: What Sean has done here hopefully has taught his father a lesson or two about simplicity. I don't think "how to" books have to be so complicated and Sean Covey proves it with this wonderful book. It has the exact same message as Stephen Covey's book but is a lot more fun and relaxing to read. I recommend that all adults buy it instead of Stephen Covey's book, "7 Habits of Highly Effective People". Stephen Covey's wordy,proud and know it all writing style really got on my nerves. Sean's book on the other hand is humble, straight forward, simple, easy and fast to read. You get the point without having to read through a bunch of mental masturbation. I bought it for my teenage daughter and then ended up reading the whole book and buying another copy for another teenager. They both really liked it. My husband is a crisis counselor who works with teens. He has been using the ideas in Sean Covey's book for his "Rites of Passage" work with teens and has really gotten some great insights and practical tools for his workshops. I wish there were more books like this on the market. If your teen is resistent to reading the book then read it yourself. You'll find that it will still be helpful when guiding them or talking to them about the immense stress and issues facing them in today's highly chaotic society.
Rating: Summary: Finaly a grown up under stands kids. Review: I think that Sean Covey wrote a great book beacuse it's like he understands kids so well. I read this book in school,I learned so much reading this book. It really changed me a lot. I just want to say thanks.
