Regents' Professor and Arizona Poet Laureate Alberto Ríos created this puzzle in celebration of those who lead by example. Indeed, heroes and heroines typically aren't content to sit on their laurels but instead choose to act for good.
The heroes in this puzzle come in many shapes and sizes: real and imagined, local and global, small and large, likely and unlikely. Happy solving!
Be gentle and you can be bold; be frugal and you can be liberal; avoid putting yourself before others and you can become a leader among men.
