From the editor
We initiate this edition of Wave with an exclusive interview with Silvia Pfeifer. The beautiful and elegant Brazilian actress discussed her career in Brazil and Portugal. Visit the BrazilianWave.org website to listen to the Wave-on-the-go Podcast interviews. Arthur Vianna addresses a groundbreaking issue in Canada: the new organ donation law, passed in the province of Nova Scotia, which incorporates presumed consent (opt-out). Because the year 2020 was extremely tumultuous, so intense and uncertain, many opened their hearts to welcome the arrival of new additions to their families. This arrival offered joy for many people who needed cuddling. Renata Garavaglia shares these stories in her article on pets. Giving continuity to the topic of pets, please read the text by Ana Carolina Botelho, in the WaveKids section. “Mimi, the kitten” is a delightful story to read aloud with your children during leisure time.
