The cheese is a metaphor for the things that we want in life, for example a good job, a loving relationship, money or possessions, good health or inner peace of mind spirituality. The maze is the place where you search and look for the things you want and the problem is the cheese keeps moving. Change can be a blessing or a curse depending how it is perceived an amusing and enlightening story. The aim of the story is to explore how change effects people and sums up the story in 94 pages a great little read with over 24 million copies sold worldwide a must have book for all ages.
