Can you be-leaf it?

Six-year-old Daniel from Brazil loves playing outside with his brother, Gabriel. One time, the nearby river flooded their home — it was really scary! But thanks to their Compassion center, Daniel’s family got food and clothes to replace what was lost. Now he’s back to big smiles and silly adventures, like wearing a papaya leaf!
