These ingredients and more are poured into the “Animal Hero Kids: Voices for the Voiceless” book written by that 60-year-old Animal Hero Kids founder mentioned above, and the writer of this article.
On November 2, 2019 at the Animal Hero Kids Summit and Celebration, history will be made with a stellar Animal Hero Kids Hall of Fame line up. There will be an unprecedented meeting of all of the compassionate kids and teens I have met over the many years. I am so thankful to Gabe Oria and Mike Leaming, who will be filming for the Animal Hero Kids documentary throughout this epic event.
I gave the first Animal Hero Award approximately 20 years ago to a fifth grader in Lauderhill, Florida, who, despite the opinions of his friends, rescued an injured mourning dove. Sydale had an Animal Hero card I gave to him at a school assembly in his pocket, when he saw an injured mourning dove on his way to school. So he knew exactly the correct actions to take to ensure the mourning dove the best chance at survival. Yes, the dove was released after a licensed wildlife center cared for him.
Currently, I am in communication with Sydale to see if he can attend the Animal Hero Kids Evening Celebration with his daughter. I am determined to unite the youth in the “Animal Hero Kids: Voices for the Voiceless” book at the summit and celebration. The power of the Animal Hero Kids documentary to bring the stories from the book to life, combined with an inarguable visual vehicle, will be a first.
