Appeal: Unexpected heroism despite the overwhelming praise

Recommendation: Elizabeth the Hero is perfect for young readers who would appreciate a story about a regular person who becomes a hero, despite their reluctance to be in the spotlight. Francine Pascal's story is relatable and teaches us how to deal with the challenges of recognition.
