What does Charley love most about nature?

Nature makes me feel happy and peaceful. It’s like a giant playground where everything is alive and full of wonder. I love the way it smells, like fresh air and flowers, and how it sounds with birds singing and leaves rustling. Nature is so beautiful, and I hope we can take care of it forever so the animals, flowers, and trees stay safe and happy.


What is Charley's favorite animal—and why?

My favorite animal is a capybara because they are so cute and funny! They look like giant guinea pigs, but they’re even cooler. I love how they have such big, round faces and little noses that wiggle. Their fur looks so soft, like a stuffed animal I just want to hug. Capybaras are my favorite because they’re really good at being friends. It’s like they’re the nicest animals in the whole world.


What is Charley's favorite outdoor activity?

Swimming is the best because I get to play so many games. I like to pretend I’m a mermaid with a sparkly tail, diving under the water to look for treasure. Sometimes, I try to see how far I can go without coming up for air, but not too far because I don’t want to run out of breath! I also like to float on my back and look up at the sky. The clouds look so big, and it feels like I’m flying.
