From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Who Moved My Cheese?, a brilliant new parable that shows readers how to stay calm and successful, even in the most challenging of environments.

A young man lives unhappily in a valley. One day he meets an old man who lives on a mountain peak. At first the young man doesn’t realize that he is talking to one of the most peaceful and successful people in the world. But in the course of further encounters and conversations, the young man comes to understand that he can apply the old man’s remarkable principles and practical tools to his own life to change it for the better. Spencer Johnson knows how to tell a deceptively simple story that teaches deep lessons. The One Minute Manager (co-written with Ken Blanchard) sold 15 million copies and stayed on the New York Times bestseller list for more than twenty years. Since it was published a decade ago, Who Moved My Cheese? has sold more than 25 million copies. In fact there are more than 46 million copies of Spencer Johnson’s books in print, in forty-seven languages—and with today’s economic uncertainty, his new book could not be more relevant. Pithy, wise, and empowering, Peaks and Valleys is clearly destined to becomeanother Spencer Johnson classic.

Motivational Allegory

Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2024

The story is deeply inspiring and thought-provoking. Although short and simplistic I can’t argue with its basic premise, and while reading I often found myself pausing to consider the peaks and valleys I’ve experienced in my own life. Highly recommended!

this book tells a great story and has a powerful message that if we approach our challenges differently, we wouldn’t look at things happening to us but instead happening for us. I love the message that it’s in the valley that we learn

Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2023

Verified Purchase

Simple and to the point. One of the many good points this book makes is that its always best to ask yourself empowering questions when you are in a bad situation or a " valley". What is the truth in this situation? and How can we use the good that's hidden in this bad time?. VERY POWERFUL!

I love short books with your chock full of information and wisdom because they get straight to the point and you get to understand everything that was relayed. I'm really enjoyed this and because it's such a short read I will be reading it time and time again.

I love this book! I recommend reading Who Moved The Cheese first, then reading this book. I read the book in about 6 hours. Both books show a different perspective on life, and a different approach to dealing with change.

It was a great book about how to deal with the good and bad times in life. Life is full of ups and downs .How we deal with them determines our success and failures,and determines the quality of life.This book is so simple and
can be read in an hour or so,but is such a profound and uplifting one.

Fantastic Read

Reviewed in Canada on May 25, 2020

Verified Purchase

This book is fantastic. I've already read it twice. It provides helpful advice financially, and in most other aspects of life. It's simplistic plot and clear messages make it easy to understand and be interesting to anyone. The plot is interesting and is very clear on the message. I suggest reading this at least twice as you get a seperate perspective on it and your situation. This book is short and to the point, but also has a lot below the surface to get at.

10/10 would recommend.

A must read in COVID times

Reviewed in Australia on September 4, 2021

The One Minute Manager which Spencer Johnson co-authored with Ken Blanchard has been a staple of mine for years.
Parables are such a great way yo get a message across.
I read this in one sitting in bed on a Saturday morning. It will change my life and the lives of those around me.
