My hero is hardworking because he invented things nonstop. My hero is brave because he's lucky to be alive instead of dead of his own inventions. My hero influenced me to make things I never made before.

My hero is a hero because he invented so many things people gave him rewards. The town gave him a coin with his face on it and his name.
