What is a hero



What is a hero?

For this assignment, you will be giving me your, personal definition of a hero. In a 1-2 double-spaced typed, page paper, you will present your definition of a hero for today’s society and provide an example of your definition. The example will help to illustrate to me what you see as a hero.

2. Present a thesis statement in your introduction with your definition of a hero.
