A self-help book for teens using heroism as the framework for being a better person and helping others. The book provides an overview of heroism with an emphasis on everyday heroism. There is an overview of the hero’s journey and stories of real-life heroism in each chapter. The book also includes activities that readers can use to create goals and take steps to become “heroic.” Includes a bibliography for further research. A good addition for middle school library collections.
