I first came to know of Dylan in Seal the Deal, Copenhagen. Then I came to America and heard more. I go on to youtube to see his speech and then I check all of his organisation website. It is here: http://www.lilmdgs.org.

Dylan is a hero to me because he is a very simple person but very special and powerful when he talks. He is so inspiring because he shares simple stories that make a lot of sense. After I hear about him and learn about him more, I feel inspired to do something, like him. I think I begin to work with a small group, also to meet the MDGs, and we will all watch Dylan on youtube and what he talks about. This way we can do what he is doing and help meet the MDGs.

Dylan is my hero because he is not hard for me to imagine, when he talks I can actually understand what he is talking about and relate to it. He seems like a real person, just like me, and not a difficult person to follow. He has, what you say, a unique energy and enthusiasm about him.

We have a right to have a say in decisions that are going to affect us. Dylan says his, and he inspires me to say mine. Now I talk to my country's children and we all have our say. Dylan, you rock!
