Who is my hero?

Who is my hero?

My hero could be Giacomo Mazzariol. He is an Italian writer from Castelfranco, who was born in 1997.

Resultat d'imatges per a "giacomo mazzariol"He has published two books, but the most important one is named: My brother chases dinosaurs. It talks about his life since he was a child, when his little brother, Giovanni, borns with Down's syndrome. He first thinks that, if he's special, then he could be a hero, but later, he realizes that Giovanni is too different from the others and he ends up embarassed and refuses him

At the begining he is selfish, cruel and cowardly, but now he's more comprensive with other people.
He learns how to apreciate their diferences becose he understands that he is happy while he plays with his brother, and that his opinion was just the same as the rest of people. Then he begans undestanding him.

I've decided to choose him becose he has arrived to a lot of people with his story and I also think that we need more people like him, trying to normalize people diferences.
