Summary

In this story, based on true events, a retired lieutenant in the Fire Department of the City of New York (FDNY) shares for the first time his brave 9/11 experience with his grandchildren. Grandpa is a hero who helped rescue the last man out alive from the ruins of the World Trade Center, but his grandchildren didn’t even know it until they started asking questions. Countless stories of ordinary Americans doing extraordinary things surround us, but revealing their stories takes know-how. Through this authentic story and others in the series, kids increase their awareness about 9/11 and everyday heroes. They also learn how to ask probing questions and become active listeners and curious learners seeking context. "My Buddy's a Hero – And I Didn't Even Know It" is the first book in the Discovering Heroes® series of books for kids of all ages, especially 7-11. "Remembering Heroes" is the second book in the series. “9/11 Courage and Tributes” is the third.
