Abstract
From Ancient Egypt's King Tut to The Dalai Lama to modern-day athletes like Shaun White, this text explores what shaped these inspiring boys into becoming the world's heroes. The book contains forty-six brief, three-page autobiographies of boys who changed the world before they were twenty years old. Additionally, snippets of how current boy readers plan to make their mark are included after each historical account.
