“America’s Government Teacher” and author of the New York Times bestselling The Small and the Mighty pens a hopeful book about twelve ordinary Americans who stood up to do the next needed thing.

“Want mighty kids? Give them these spectacular mighty heroes. I love it. Sharon McMahon is a national treasure!” —Brad Meltzer, bestselling author of the Ordinary People Change the World series

One kind act. One spark of bravery. One big idea from someone nobody expected.

In this collection, you’ll meet twelve real people from America’s past—some famous, most not—whose choices changed the course of history.

You’ll meet María de López, who drove ambulances during World War I and helped win the vote for women. You’ll read about two boys—Norman and Alan—who met at a campout, stayed friends for life, and helped lead the country together. And you’ll discover how teachers, kids, and quiet changemakers made a mighty difference in their communities.

With powerful storytelling from #1 New York Times bestselling author Sharon McMahon, We Are Mighty celebrates courage, character, and the idea that the smallest step can create ripples we can’t yet see.
