A bit dull. We were required to read it in school, write notes on it and all that jazz. It has good ideas in it, I guess, but I didn't gain much insight from it.

This text is very useful for building or strengthening character and wisdom. Though the title says "Teens", I recommend it for pre-teens (11-12) as well to help them lay a strong foundation for adulthood.

This book is potentially one of the most useful books a teen can own. It presents the same highly effective habits of the best selling original in a format designed to appeal to teens. It's not that the ideas have been watered down--far from it--instead it's been packaged in a way that is clearer and more succient than the original. Frankly, when I want a quick review of the habits for my own improvement, I use the Teen version instead of the "adult" version. Students who read and apply these principles, will be more successful in school, sports, relationships and life after teen.

This book is a phenomenal tool for teachers as well as teens. Even for parents of teens, this can help you gear your thought process to what might help your teens. If you didn't read this as a teen, I'd highly suggest it for adult consumption as well.

For the teen that is truly ready to make a change that will revolutionize the way they look at the world and the way the world looks at them, this is the perfect book! Covey does an excellent job of breaking down the behaviors that cause issues for teens everyday and helping students think about new 'baby steps' to help promote a more healthy interaction with life.

I have to warn the parents out there who think this would be good for their kids to read, they won't read it until they are ready. If you think your teen should read the book, let me suggest getting it for yourself and making them wonder, 'what is s/he up to'?

This book is to help teens become more organized and ease them towards a successful life. Sean Covey is the son of Stephen Covey who wrote 7 Habits of Highly Successful People. This is a great read for teens or their parents or both.

I as a parent have read it and like it but I have yet to convince my son to read it. I think it has great tips for surviving the teen years.

This book is in excellent condition. I've only read it once so it's still relatively new.
