Description
A statue of a man who sold freedom for cotton and tea. The world around her says this man is a hero. But she knows he’s not a hero – not a real one.
Heroes are hard to find. She looks for them around corners, under rocks, and on TV, but there are none that she can see. And so, the little girl marches and shouts for them instead.
And that statue – he doesn’t belong. He doesn’t stand for Kindness. He doesn’t stand for Peace.
Maybe he shouldn’t stand at all. A Hero Like Me empowers children to have courage to stand up for what is right and be their own hero. It shows every child that they have a voice in their community and a say in who is on their streets.
That they too have power, just like Jen.
