Everyone Can Be a Hero
Rama's story is full of many kinds of heroes.
A mighty monkey. A tiny squirrel. An old eagle. A patient old woman. A kind boatman. A brave young monkey. Each one helped in their own special way.
"You do not have to be big or strong to be a hero," Rama said. "You only need a kind and willing heart."
Every helper, big or small, was important. Every good deed mattered.
Rama showed that anyone, even you, can be a hero by choosing to be kind and helpful.
Anyone can be a hero with a kind and willing heart.
