The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens Workbook

Very disappointed. I thought this would be a kid friendly version of the original and it's not. It's incredibly boring and full of useless info. If you want a book to help motivate your teen to be a successful adult, I recommend skipping this and going directly to 7 Habits of Highly Effective Pople.

My daughter, who has never been the most dedicated student, was assigned this book as optional reading and decided she wanted to start off her new school year with as much help as possible, so she asked for this book. I ordered it and she read it and announced, with confidence, that she was going to have a 'way better' school year and even told ME to read the book. We'll see what, if any, difference it makes, but the enthusiasm alone made it worth the money.

My workbook was actually shipped to a family in Michigan. The lady was nice enough to call me and send me the workbook at her expense. I received the tape she ordered and in turn sent it to her. Someone dropped the ball.

Parents do not have time to train their kids. This book tells 'em what they should have earned at home. I assign it to my teens that I tutor as required reading. They have to identify what their strengths and weaknesses are, and I find they actually are honest about their self-assessment. It is geared to kids so reading is not a chore and forces those whose reading is sketchy to wade through. The cure for people who do not like to read, or for whom it is hard, is to read. That is why I like this book. One's attention never wavers.

Ulrica Grade 7 Oakview School The reason why I read this book was because it was assigned by my teacher. When I started reading this book I thought that this book would be boring and dull. Now that I have finished reading this book I really enjoyed it. It helped me with alot of problems that I was facing. Now that I have finished this book I will try my best to put the seven habits I learned in the book into action. Because of this book I have learned to control my temper. I have changed all my bad habits, and I am going to do better in school.I would reccomend this book to teens who have problems with friends, family, and school. It will change everything for them.

* * * * * FIVE STARS! NO DOUBT ABOUT IT! * * * * * Last summer I found this book on my younger brother's desk--a gift to him from our mother. As an eighteen-year-old college student, I thought the writing would be "too young" for me. NOPE! I read the book and it has significantly changed my views of myself, others, and the world. On another note, I liked the book so much that I decided to check out 'the original,' Sean's father's book (7 Habits of ... *people*): the verdict: I personally found the book for Teens a MUCH better read. Sean's writing style is concise and very visual, making it easy to understand, enjoyable, and fun. The anecdotes and stories are universally applicable--despite racial, economic, etc. backgrounds (or even age!). He doesn't waste time getting to the point, taking a single paragraph to introduce a new concept, and then supporting it with two or three stories, anecdotes, or quotations; and yes, there are even pictures too! The end product is something that is VERY enjoyable, practicable, and has helpful. If you have ANY doubts about whether or not to read this book, I would say that if you are even looking into it enough to read this review, you and someone you know can greatly benefit from the ideas in this book. Of course self-change is scary and difficult, but this book makes it fun and easy. It's helped me to not only improve my own life, but also that of my younger brother, guiding me to be a better role model for him. When I first found this book I had made fun of it, but as soon as I had begun reading, I was hooked [or as the book would have me say, "I hooked myself..."] Thanks Sean (and Stephen) for your contribution(s)! [And thanks Mom, too...] : - )

This book is great! Teenagers can really relate to this kind of stuff! The book is jam packed with pictures, quotes, and best of all the best advice a teenager could get!
It's divided into sections of the 7 Habits for Highly Effective Teens. This book isn't a book to preach or lecture. It's a book to learn from and grow from.
If you really take this book to heart it could change your life somehow. It could help give you more positive outlooks on life.
This is a great book for teenagers~

This book provides a great opportunity to discuss with young teens important habits and goals in life and how to achieve them. The format and approach are appropriate for younger teens to appreciate and enjoy. The examples are helpful and relevant. OVerall a good discussion book for and with younger teens.
