"I am a Hero" is a narrative about unseen heroism in everyday life, despite a lack of recognition. Emphasis is on small acts of kindness and being sensitive to the needs of your pets.
The story gives suggestions of how a child can be a hero.
Note by author:
When the children went outside to play, Bitsy, the star of this book, would search the backyard thoroughly to make sure all was safe, then she would report to me, the mom, that she had been doing her job. Her selfless, unconditional love for our family was the inspiration for this book.
