Heroes are superhuman-or, at least, it's easy to assume that they are when you read ripped-from-the-news stories of derring-do. But, in reality, almost anyone who's motivated can be a hero, and the heroes who make the biggest impact aren't always the ones who make headlines. This approachable, research-backed guide will equip kids with the tools they need to become those everyday heroes, providing accounts from real heroes living out the truth of psychologist Phil Zimbardo's words: Most heroes are ordinary. It's the act of heroism that's extraordinary.
