Hero Definition Essay
The online Merriam Webster dictionary states that a hero is a person who is greatly admired. You would usually assume that a hero is someone with a cape saving someone, but a hero is not necessarily a superhero such as Batman and Superman; it is someone who inspires you. People may say that a hero has to be someone well-known, but I think that a hero can be anyone. You would usually see a hero doing something good like helping pick up trash or donating food to the local food drive. A hero is someone that you strive to be like in your daily life, someone who pushes you to do the right thing.
A hero is someone that you strive to be like in your daily life. A hero might be your mom or dad who inspires you to be the person you have become today.

This creates an unbreakable bond between the hero and child that will last a lifetime.
