Ally Benjamin

My hero is Ally Benjamin. She is nine years old and lives in Connecticut. Ally is friendly and caring. She is in third grade just like me. Ally is a very good friend to me.

Ally used to play with me in first grade because I had no friends. She helped me understand my school, which is different than other schools and I didn't know how it worked. Ally also showed me how to do work that I did not know how to do. Ally helped lots of people at school. She even helped many kids in Laguna Beach. After second grade, Ally and her family moved to Connecticut. By then I had made lots of new friends, but I still missed Ally and I always will.

In my first year of grade school, Ally made me feel like I fit in. She would let me play with her and her friends too. She worked with me on work I did not understand in my second year. Ally was helpful to me all throughout the school year, from 2003 to 2005.

Ally is my hero because she stood up for me in hard times. She cared for me in many ways. Ally is funny and is not mean. She is a kind person. She treats every one the same and is always fair. That is why Ally Benjamin is my hero!

To Ally, my best friend. Thank you for what you gave to me.
