問題詳情

Heroism often requires little more than the common sense of a 6-year-old. Three days after HurricaneKatrina hit New Orleans, Susan Williams, the mother of first-grader De’Monte, decided she had to get her familyout of their flooded neighborhood. But when a small rescue helicopter finally touched down at the neighborhood,the pilot said he could take only a handful of children; he would come right back for the parents. Reluctant andseeing the floodwaters about to swallow their home, Williams tearfully put De’Monte, 6, and his 5-month-oldbrother Da’Roneal aboard, along with two cousins and three neighbor children, all ranging in age from 14 monthsto 3 years. The chopper flew off–but it didn’t return for the parents.  When the kids was dropped off on the city’s west side, and they became lost in the chaos there, De’Montekept a cool head and a brave heart. Clutching Da’Roneal, he had the other kids (one was wearing only diapers)hold hands in a chain as they wandered to find a safe place. He kept them together and unharmed until rescuersdiscovered them and took them to a Baton Rouge, Louisiana shelter. They thought the kids were now orphans.But once in the shelter, De’Monte saved the day again. Thanks to good coaching by his mom, the boy gaverescuers enough information-names, addresses, phone numbers, personal descriptions–so that in a few days theywere able to locate all the children’s parents.
