We're talking abiut different kinds of heroes in comm skills, and I decided to talk about greg heffley from diary of a wimpy kid. Greg is kind of inconspicuous in school, and he's attentive to what happens, so if he makes a mistake he can learn from it. I think he's an anti-hero for himself and maybe Rowley, too. Gre is always telling Rowley what he thinks is "words of wisdom", like how Rowley's inner middle-schooler hasn't emerged yet. But greg has his own problems, like in The Last Straw when his dad threatened to send him to military school. In books 4 and 5, his friendship with Rowley was on the line. Greg is a hero because he deals with problems in a way pepole his age can relate to.
