Perry Moore, here, author ...Hi, all and THANK YOU!<br /><br />Perry Moore, here, author of HERO, grateful for all the real-life heroes out there who can relate to Thom.<br /><br />I'd love to invite you to write me perrymoorestories@gmail.com I can give you so many insights to the real-life origins of this fictional story, and I'd welcome any thoughts or suggestions you may have for the sequel.<br /><br />How lucky we are to live in an era where you can all make a difference in this world -- to be the real life role models that generations to come will embrace!<br /><br />I never had these positive role models; in fact, I more vividly remember being forced to laugh at Eddie Murphy's AIDS and gay jokes when I was Thom's age.<br /><br />Now, please write me, or post reviews on sites like Amazon. You are all so passionate and intelligent. Think how many of you can get HERO into the hands of those who need it.<br /><br />The most eternally grateful fanboy and author in the world,<br />Perry Moore<br />perrymoorestories@gmail.comPerryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13662860325961369359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-982413406210688800.post-75045641631955939762009-07-15T19:26:25.864+02:002009-07-15T19:26:25.864+02:00Sarah - Thanks

I liked his humour as well, but it was the understanding that developed between him and his father that I loved.<br /><br />Tracy - Yeah, they were a super-dysfunctional family.<br /><br />I'd be interested to see what they do with the TV show if it ever happens.LesleyWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14059048442986942270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-982413406210688800.post-31061266634041514792009-07-13T22:18:17.981+02:002009-07-13T22:18:17.981+02:00Oh I just loved this one.

The superheroes in his group became his family and it was just wonderful.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05320961506471746567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-982413406210688800.post-12433701314778169802009-07-13T00:43:53.206+02:002009-07-13T00:43:53.206+02:00Great review!
"One of the most interesting...Great review! <br /><br />"One of the most interesting things about the book for me - was how it highlights how our parents can live separate lives that we aren't even aware of."<br /><br />I really like how you said this. I think the thing I loved the most about this book was Thom's r/ship with his father and those few scenes towards the end of the book are extremely poignant; filled with new understanding and compassion.<br /><br />I'm so glad that you loved it, Lesley. It will definitely be a top 5 for me too.Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18281267776361355788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-982413406210688800.post-69421006618334941102009-07-12T11:12:49.305+02:002009-07-12T11:12:49.305+02:00This looks seriously cute!
