The concept of “self-help” is something of a contradiction, according to Craig and Marc Kielburger, two brothers in their twenties from Toronto who founded the renowned international relief organization Free the Children. In Me to We: Turning Self-Help On Its Head, the Kielburgers call for a complete overhaul of popular North American ideas about how to be happy. They argue that true fulfillment can only be achieved through serving others. Whether chronicling their own volunteer efforts building schools in war-torn Sierra Leone or their visits with the late Mother Teresa as she cared for the sick in the slums of Calcutta, the authors write convincingly of the rich rewards to be found in reaching out to those in need. Though not necessarily an original idea, the book is a thoughtful blend of inspiring stories of people helping people (including short essays on the subject by such celebrities as Richard Gere, Dr. Jane Goodall, and Oprah Winfrey) and pragmatic advice for how anyone can do the same, no matter what their current station in life. While not all readers interested in personal growth will be persuaded to cancel their gym membership and head off to Africa, some may think twice before pulling out their credit card the next time Tony Robbins is in town when the local food bank or homeless shelter could surely use an extra set of hands.--Patrick Jennings
