product description

It is said that the true purpose of life is the joy of helping others, but there is often a perception that the next generation is not as committed to changing the world as their parents were. However, in Why Not Me?, 15-year-old author Allyson Vanek shows that selflessly giving is a joy that knows no age limitations.

From Philadelphia to Pakiston, Allyson shares amazing stories of young people who are making a difference in their communities…and in the world.

Why Not Me? changes the stereotypical vision of teenagers from being “selfish” to “being selfless.” Though this inspirational book, Allyson challenges everyone, but especially young people, to ask “Why Not Me?” when it comes to having an impact on the lives of others.

This book will make you feel great about our next generation.

    Why Not Me
    I purchased one copy of this book, "Why Not Me" for each one of my four grandchildren ages 10 through 17. I wanted to plant the message early in their developing character as a Child of God.

        Great Graduation Gift!!!
        This book was the perfect graduation gift with the perfect message as they each continue their journey beyond high school. Making a difference in the lives of others is what life is all about, so I was very grateful to buy this in bulk for many special members of the Class of 2018!!!

          Bought this for a gift - would have been more appropriate for a younger person.
