Thank you for visiting AR3Q.com. You can learn a lot about someone with the right three questions. Just ask an 11 year old.
Ava Rosa- Student and Journalist
Ava Rosa began this project with the basic idea that 10 year olds can and should ask the questions that grown ups are too shy or busy to ask. She is a fantastic student and is interested in the world around her- like many kids her age. Her goal is to learn a lot by asking good questions and listening to the interesting and important people she will encounter through this project.
Here, you will find all of my Three Questions shows and links to my facebook page, twitter feed, and youtube channel.
