I believe the hero in my book is Trisha as I said in my last post. Since I have read further into my book, I see now that Trisha really is the real hero and she shows many ways on why she is! Some of the qualities Trish shows for being a hero is hard working, willing, determined, a self-sacrificer,  cooperative, helpful, and loyal. I feel that all of these qualities are very important for a hero for when showing all of these things, for when showing all of these qualities, the character will come out to be the ultimate hero in everyone's eyes. Trish is all of these things for she works hard at getting chores done while her dad is in the hospital, she is willing to do all of these things by herself and doesn't complain about it, sacrifices her time and effort into getting it done, and is very helpful.
A quote from this book to support my thinking is on page 24 where Trisha said ; "No, David. I have much to do with Dad being away. I have a responsibility here! I can't go to some party!" I believe this quote proves that Trisha really does want to and is the hero.
These, I believe are very important hero qualities concluded my opinion that I believe the hero in my book is Trisha.

I chose two pictures of a girl exercising a horse which is what Trish does to show she is a hero, and a picture of a girl doing barn chores, which is another thing that Trish does to show she is a hero.

In the book I am reading, The Golden Filly, the main character is named Trisha. I think Trisha has many archetypes to her for she shows many different emotions through the text and is on the sides of many different people, but I believe her main archetype is being the hero. At the beginning of the text, Trish is being trained for her big race on her horse Spitfire, by her dad. She firstly shows hero traits for she sets aside all of her other work to make sure she trains Spitfire to win(self-sacrifice)! Then later on in the text, she has to deal with her dad going to the hospital for a very severe cough, and is willing and shows self-sacrifice for she makes sure all of the tasks he was supposed to do around the barn are done and does not stop to pity herself for the loss of her dad. I am not far in the book, but so far those are the traits I have seen in Trisha to show the archetypal trait of being the hero.
