“Who Moved My Cheese?” tells a story of change, of how we react to it, and the terrible straits we can find ourselves in when we don’t follow that change. The story is told in such simple terms, that one might mistakably think there is little value in the story. The story concerns four characters, two mice, and two “little people.” The characters live in a maze chasing after cheese. The cheese is intended to be a symbol for anything we chase after in life that we believe will make us happy.
