The Beginning of a FAMOUS Hero – Welcome parents and students!

The Beginning of a FAMOUS Hero™ is a series of two-minute stories that works in conjunction with The Beginning of a Hero™.   This series spotlights famous people of great accomplishment in HELPING others—the people we call “HEROES!”  Just as these people started out planting seeds of accomplishment in their own childhoods, these stories encourage young listeners to follow the examples portrayed here. These stories are about people who already faced the challenges of childhood and actually became what  The Beginning of a Hero stories suggest.

We offer low-cost memberships for the private use of parents and children.  For site-license information regarding public use in schools please click here.   Thank you…and ENJOY!
