Kandy
Geckos are a type of lizard found in warm climates all over the world. They are different from other lizards in that they use vocal noises for social interaction. Geckos stay primarily in wet areas and live in piles of leaves.

Many people think that Kandy is shy, but her friends know better. She doesn’t talk a lot because she is always thinking. She is as quick with her mind as she is on her feet. Kandy also likes to ask a lot of questions. She wants to understand as much as she can.
Buddhism
Buddhists believe that there is no God. They teach that the way to be happy is to live a simple life because “things” only cause suffering. They believe in reincarnation – that after we die we are reborn as a different person or animal.
