Q: Hi Theo did you ever see a jellyfish? I did while we were in Florida. — Kaylee, 11, Canada

Theo: I saw some jellyfish once when I visited an aquarium. They look kind of cool, don’t they? Did you actually see one in the ocean while you were in Florida? I read about jellyfish online with my dad and know that they can sting. I hope you stayed far, far away!

Q: Why do you like school? — Jose, PUERTO RICO

Theo: Dear Jose, I like school because I think it’s fun to read and talk about new stuff. Right now, we’re learning about the human body and parts of the skeleton in Science class, and it’s really interesting. I also like hanging out with my friends everyday, especially Andy and Miguel.

Q: Do you like to read a lot and write too? — Lisa, 7, Utah

Theo: I love to read – science fiction is my favorite at the moment. I read a lot before I go to bed. Sometimes my mom will let me stay up to finish a chapter. I like to write too and am trying to think of a cool science fiction story. Miguel said he’d draw the pictures to go with it, so, together, we’d have a whole book!

Q: Why were you given the name Theo? — Yanired, 11, Puerto Rico
