Hi Miia! Tell us about your character, Clawdeen? Clawdeen is starting her first year at Monster High. I think one of the things I love most about Clawdeen is her determination. She is in an entirely new environment and has a huge secret she has to hide, but that doesn’t stop her from trying to make meaningful connections. Then, when evil enters Monster High, she is the first to step up and right what is wrong. She will not give up and I really love that about her. Monster High is a place where Clawdeen can truly be herself. What advice do you have for TGs who haven’t found that yet? Although it may seem like a place where Clawdeen can truly be herself, it isn’t always that way. Monster…
