Monster Trade part 2!

Here's Mela, with her new found friends, at http://www.alittlestranger.com/

Mela was found locked in an airing cupboard in an empty, repossessed property, by its new owners. She was clearly traumatised by the ordeal and Monster Workshop found it difficult to coax her out, but she responded well to white chocolate buttons. She’s still a bit wary of small dark places but will make an ideal companion for holly and friends.

Keep up-to-date!
