Out of the two books now I have read by Dustin Ross I can honestly say that this one is now my favorite. BILLY THE GOAT MEETS A HERO has so many great lessons that I think we can all benefit from.It begins with Billy wanted to spend some time with firefighters---individuals that were real heroes---and get the experience of what they have to go through. The meeting was inspiring but when Billy's fear is confronted he wonders if he has what it takes to be a hero himself.The answer that is given to him is one that I hope we can all read and receive. Billy is told that it's not what job you do that makes you a hero. It's all about being able to do the right thing even when you are afraid that really makes you a hero. What a great lesson for us all. We can always look up to others for what they are able to do, but at the end of the day we can be a hero simply by doing what we know to be right.Dustin Ross entertains, engages and educates with this one, and there is definitely something here for everyone to enjoy.
