Justin Bieber says

Justin Bieber has helped many people during hard times in their lives. Not many people have the heart to help others like he has done. He has taught people to never give up, to fight for their dreams and that you can do whatever you put your mind into!

I think Justin Bieber is an amazing person because at the age of eighteen he has done all these great things. He is also an amazing artist that has accomplished everything he has set his mind to. I learned from him that even the smallest deed counts as something big! That's why I think Justin Bieber is a hero.
