A hero to me is Kawhi Leonard. He is my favorite basketball player on my favorite team. I’ve always tried to play like him and steal his moves. I follow all of his stats every game. He’s a hero that doesn’t stand out because he’s shy and doesn’t like to talk much. I hope to meet him one day, that would be amazing! He is my hero.

If I had to choose a hero, I would have to choose my mom. My mom is my hero because she does so much for my family. She also always encourages me to do my best. My mom always does the laundry, makes dinner and comes to all of my soccer games and plays and makes me feel happy when I’m sad. She also is someone that I can look up to. One day I want to be as successful, smart and kind as her. Not all heros wear capes!

I would consider my doctor a hero because she helps me live and thrive. Imagine, a world without me constantly saving your life before a test, quizzing you on everything. Imagine it. You would constantly fail everything. Every goal you ever had… Crushed, pounded. So one last time imagine what would happen without a doctor. Imagine what would happen without me. Also my doctor told me not to do something dangerous. So we went to Niagra Falls and I dropped my bouncy ball down the falls. I thought what my doctor said before I made my decision. Which was to not jump.

That’s awesome to think that your doctor is your hero. I think too many people underrate their doctors, but they do so much so we can live a healthy life.

I think that Misty Copeland is a hero. While I do not have a specific hero, Misty Copeland is certainly heroic. She is the first African-American principal dancer at any major ballet company. She got on pointe only eight weeks after she started dancing. She was rejected from many dance companies and schools. They said that she didn’t have the right body. Most people would give up, but she persevered. She finally got into ABT (American Ballet Theatre) and worked her way up to principal. With ABT she has danced many roles and gotten lots of attention. She wrote two books, Firebird and Life in motion. She is a undoubtedly a hero.

My heros are both of my parents. They are both doctors and help save lives everyday. My mom is a radiologist, a doctor who looks through x-rays and my dad is an anesthesiologist. He goes to the hospital everyday and gives people the medicine to fall asleep before a surgery. Without him, the people would be in a lot of pain during the surgery. He was also a trained surgeon but then decided to become an anesthesiologist. Without my parents, many people would be dead by now and I thank them for both saving lives and being able to put food on the table and in my dog’s bowl.

I consider Kyrie Irving as a hero! I have always watched him play if I had time and I loved it so much! I’m always inspired by watching his moves and how he can handle the ball. I watched how he handles the ball and i tried to mimic them, but they are just so hard to copy. He is also my favorite player! My favorite team is the Cleveland Cavaliers, but now that Kyrie got traded to the Boston Celtics, I’m a little sad! But he still my favorite player and he still inspires me!

My mom is my hero. My mom has been there from day one. She has one of the most important qualities, kindness. Lots of people these days lack kindness, but not her. My mom would put anyone in front of herself. My mom is the first to take leadership in a crises, and she will help you whether she knows you or not. My mom is that person that if you around her you won’t feel helpless. My mom, in my eyes, is the true definition of a hero.

There are many people in my life that I look at as a hero. But my mom sticks out in my mind as a hero. She does everything for me, like making dinner, driving us places, and helping us study for tests. I love my mom because she is always there for me.

The person I consider to be a hero is my sister. I think this because my sister (Sadye) did something amazing last summer, she hiked all of the forty-six high peaks in five weeks! Sadye fits the definition of a hero because she did something significant that not many people would want to do. She was only 16 so she trained for a few weeks to get ready for this adventure. On this trip she learned that in order to succeed you have to stay positive. Each morning they would get up at around 6 and hike at least 20 miles a day. Around 3 or 4 mountains a day. This is why my sister is a hero.

George R.R.Martin Is my hero. His creative mind has shaped and inspired so many people over the years, including me. George has made a name for himself by not using the celiacs of fantasy and It changed the way authors write novels. He has even inspired me to write a book, and that book Is called Light Bring. (Coming Soon)

My hero is my dad. My dad pushes me to try my best and work hard. He is always by my side when I need him the most. Lastly my dad will drive me anywhere that I need to go. He is a true hero.

My hero is my brother. He is definitely someone who I can look up to. He helps me with a bunch of things, including my homework. He also encourages me in a bunch of things. I may think I can't do something but he will always tell me to believe in myself. My brother to me is a very talented person, and as he tries new things everyday, I'm inspired to try new things too.

My hero is my mom. My mom is the best person ever. She can always cheer me up when I am sad, and she always makes me laugh and have a good time! My mom is a hero because she does everything for me. She is always at all of the swim meets and you can always hear her yelling and clapping in the crowd. She always has the best advice that can help me through anything. Everyone says that their mom is the best, but no one has a mom like mine!

I think that Han and Sophie Scholls are heroes. They are heroes because they opened Europe's eyes to the Nazis’ horrible actions and helped other people realize they needed to do something about it. They did so by printing a series of four leaflets called “The Leaflets of the White Rose.” The bold leaflets explained the Nazis’ doings and urged the German people to rise against Hitler.

My hero is my family and friends. They're always there for me when I'm lonely or sad. They're really funny and they keep me happy. If I didn't my family and friends with me, I wouldn't know how to survive. They keep me from giving up. Being near them just makes my day. I'm happy to have them! They're a great influence, they cheer me up, and they're my hero. They always will be.

My heroes are my parents because I can look up to them and always count on them. My dad taught me how to play sports when I was young, and that's how I got good at basketball, baseball, and football. My mom is always cheering me on from the stands at all my sporting events. That’s why my parents are my heroes.

My dad is my hero. He has taught me many cool things,like how to play my favorite sport, golf. He wants me to do well in school, so he pushes me to do better. He fits the word hero because he is my teacher, my role model, and my helper. My dad is the best hero; he’s a superhero. That's why I love him.

I consider my mom to be a hero! I think so because when my mom came to America she new very little English. Even though her English wasn't the best at the time, she went to college and got tons of A's (mainly in Math). When my mom pronounced something wrong in English, people would laugh at her, but my mom didn't care because she knew that she should be more worried about her education than people laughing at her! Now my mom is a civil engineer, and she speaks fluent Arabic, French and English!
