J. K. Rowling

Rowling, who I think is a hero, is a writer from England. She is the one who wrote the seven books in the Harry Potter series. I believe she should be considered a hero because she took time out of her life that benefited others, in 2000 she established the Volant charitable trust and some of the fund goes to organizations, finally she faced some challenges and some obstacles, but didn't stop, she pushed herself on and finished what she started.

The first reason why I think she should be considered a hero because she took time out of her life to do something that benefited others. She got the idea on a train about a boy who was a wizard and quickly could have forgotten it and no one would ever have read those books, but instead she chose to write the idea down and made seven books out of it. She also had a child and that easily could have made her stop, but she didn't. She even dedicated one of her books to her child, Mackenzie Jean Rowling Murray. She to me is a amazing hero.

My next reason why she should be considered a hero because she even established the Volant Charitable Trust. She started it in 2000 and uses its 7.3 million dollars to combat poverty and social inequality. This fund also gives to organizations that aid children, multiple sclerosis research, and one-parent families. That shows that she does care for other people.

The last reason why I think Rowling should be considered a hero is because she faced some challenges, but that didn't stop her from writing the Harry Potter books. In 1990, she faced one of the challenges, her mother died of a ten year battle with multiple sclerosis. Her mom didn't even know that she was writing the books and it affected her writing, which included much more detail about Harry's loss in the first book. She also had kids. When she had a little girl she took a short break after starting Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince.

These are the reasons I think she should be considered a hero. How she did something that benefited others, how she chose to use some of her money, and how she kept on going and never stopped till she finished writing the books. I think she is an amazing person. I would also recommend the Harry Potter series, it intrigues you into the story.
