Bio poem
Alex
Cheerful, fun and loud
Lover of video games, listening to any kind of music and eating chocolates
Who wonders what happens when people die
Who fears cats, gorillas and tigers
Who feels happy when he hears the sound of rain
Who is able to participate in all activities
Who would like to see the Eiffel tower, Mount Everest and the statue of Liberty
Whose dream is to go to University
Who is ambitious
