Heroes

In Persepolis Marji had a lot of heroes. One of those heroes was her uncle that died in prison. I have a hero and that is my grandpa. He has been there for me when I needed him and he has always tried to help me in the most difficult situations. When I was going to have to leave my house in Grantsville before I came to my program, he said to bring me to his house. He said that because he didn’t want to see me go to a foster home. When I was ever hurt, he was there for me. When I got an award, he was always there to see me get it.

Everyone has heroes and everyone can be a hero for someone else. In Hotel Rwanda Paul was a hero. He saved people because he didn’t want them to die. He saved his family and his friends. When he stayed back while his family went on the convoy, he said he wanted them to be safe and he didn’t want to leave his friends that have been with him, so he stayed and protected them until they could get them all out.

In Swing Kids the kids got in fights but they stayed with each other. When one kid was into trouble, they were all there to help each other out of it. They all had there heroes. One kid, his hero was his father because he was there to protect him from the Nazis. You need a hero. We have heroes because we see them as mentors, good examples. We want to be like them. I want to be like my grandpa because he is one of the people that help others like on Hotel Rwanda. He helps others because it’s the right thing to do. If I was sick at home he would be there to make sure that I got better. Ever since I was a little kid my grandpa was there when I was sick to help me get better because he would not do anything with out me by his side.
