What does Selva love most about nature?

Selva loves that nature provides endless opportunities for exploration: from climbing trees, to wishing on dandelions, to observing the colors and growth processes of flowers and the behaviors of ants. Recently, she has expressed her enthusiasm for getting outside at night before bed to look at the moon and listen for the sound of coyotes.


What is Selva's favorite animal—and why?

Selva's favorite animal is the cheetah because she is fascinated by their speed and the fact that, although they are big cats, they "chirp" and meow instead of roar.


What is Selva's favorite outdoor activity?

Selva loves any activity that involves a natural body of water: swimming and looking for shells and seaweed at the beach, exploring mountain springs, or searching for turtles and dragonflies at the local pond.
