In the summer of 2020, Bridger shielded his little sister, Brielle, as a dog
charged at them. The resulting injury left Bridger with over 90 stitches on his
face. Brielle was a very tiny 4-year-old, and Bridger barely 6, but his love for his
sister inspired people around the world.
As a family, the Walkers have since discussed, what makes a hero? Is it a great
big act or sacrifice - or can heroes be found in normal, everyday people? This
book is a result of these discussions. For most people, their heroes are found
in seemingly small acts. A true hero does the little things every day because
nobody’s life is defined by a single act - for good or bad. Even if it is hard or
scary, a hero just keeps showing up and doing their best.
We hope you enjoy following Brielle on her journey to discover her secret super
power and how just being herself makes her the most special of heroes.
