Pumpkin and the hidden heroes – Bianca Flanders

Pumpkin wakes one morning to a loud noise. When she and Toots the cat peak through the window, they see people who are removing the trash. The men and women look dashing in their uniforms, like real heroes. Then Pumpkin starts to wonder about all of the hidden heroes out there … ‘Look for bits of magic that hide out in plain sight. Hidden Heroes are often quiet and don’t talk about their plight. They improve the lives of others, make a difference where they can. They look out for what needs to be done, and DO it – that’s their plan.’ A beautiful story that shows children there are heroes everywhere, you just need to look for them!
