Blake Mycoskie

by Adrian from Arcadia

Blake Mycoskie was an amazing hero that I just learned about. I would like to share some things I have learned about his life, heroic deeds, and my thoughts about them. I am certain you will learn a lot about my hero.

Mr. Mycoskie has had a very productive life. One day, Blake Mycoskie visited Argentina where people had no shoes and were getting diseases. He made a company where he could make money and give it away at the same time. Now there are over 300 stores in the United States. Blake Mycoskie hopes to sell over millions of shoes one day!

Blake Mycoskie has accomplished many heroic deeds, but it all started from one. He helped many kids from getting diseases. Since children got shoes, they could go to some private schools. They could walk without hurting their feet. With shoes some people could walk further than they usually can.

I have had some meaningful thoughts about what Mr. Mycoskie has done. I can’t believe people got an infection just by being barefoot. I am also very glad that I can learn at my school because I have shoes. To me, I can’t believe how many shoes he makes everyday. I still can’t believe that many people have shoes now.

As you have read, Blake Mycoskie has had a very productive life full of heroic deeds that have made me think. He is truly a hero.
