Meet the Characters
Maya Name: Maya Santos
Age: 10
I’m best known for: Great BIG ideas – for helping my friends and family, of course!
My personality is: Creative (as I said, I always have big ideas!), curious (I love knowing everything that’s going on!), and kind. Oh, and my twin brother Miguel says I’m stubborn, but I’d have to disagree…
Things I like: Spending time with my friends, Chrissy and Maggie; helping out at my parents’ pet store; cooking with my Abuela, and having adventures with my brother.
My favorite place: The community center! I love to be where the action is.
 When I say: “¡Eso es!” (“That’s it!”)
Watch out for: Adventures ahead!
