Heroes Next Door

Samuel Johnson

Hilde Hinton

When Samuel Johnson unicycled around Australia he met some awesome people. And before we had to lock down he and his other sister Hilde were travelling the country talking at schools community groups and at the side of busy streets to spread their message about how to kick cancer in the face hole. But in the process they connected and listened as people shared their own stories - not just about how cancer impacted them but about love fighting fires making families out of choice not blood knitting being there and being surprised by life and finding solace from strangers. They decided those stories should be shared and the idea for Heroes Next Door was born. The result is a moving funny irreverent inspiring and big-hearted book that shows us all that resilience and kindness are what make the difference and that you don't have to travel far to find good people ... often they are right next door.>
