My Hero
by Rachele Allen

My hero is my big brother Ross. He is very nice, he is tall and he has brown eyes and brown hair.

He is my hero because he is my teacher. By being my teacher he is my coach. Ross helped coach my basketball team, me and my team learned lots of plays.

In soccer he helped me learn to use my feet.

That is why he is my HERO!!!

My hero is my grandma! My grandma picks me up from school and asks me how my day was then she tells me how her day was. My grandma spoils me rotten she gets me toys at the Dollar store. She buys me pretzels at Pretzal Time.

My grandma makes m&m cookies. She makes fudge with and without nuts. My grandma makes delicious French Toast.

My grandma makes me feel better when Im sad. She plays cards with me. She also does jigsaw puzzles with me and they are hard! I think when she is sad I make her feel better too. Thats what I love about my grandma.

My hero is my mom she has brown hair. When wears glasses sometimes. She is really tall I think.

Another reason I think my mom is my hero is because she takes care of me. She takes care of me by playing board games with me. And she puts me to sleep.

She is nice to me by playing with me and helping me with homework.

My mom is my hero in many ways.

Editor’s Note:

For most of the authors in this collection of original stories, real and imagined, the writing process consisted of making some pre-writing notes, writing a first draft, conferencing with one or more peers for feedback, rewriting, proofreading, and finally handing in a final copy to the editor (their teacher – yours truly). In the commercial publishing world only perfect copy, free of any errors in the conventions of punctuation and spelling, is ever published. Here, for instructional purposes, any students’ errors not caught between first draft and final copy have been left intact for them to take note of here in print. While some corrections were made on the way to final copy, many were also missed as you will see.
