Marshmallow Meets Bon Bon 🐻‍❄️🦊

When playing in a large snow pile, Marshmallow observes two little paws and a long bushy tail poking out.

Who could this animal be?

Why are they asking for help?

Why are they stuck in the snow?

And why do they look different to Marshmallow?

A story of adventure, friendship and celebrating what makes us who we are.
