• A blue-ribbon headband with a bow for her hair


• Underwear


• Socks


• Shiny blue patent shoes with bows on the toes

The 18" Melody™ doll has a soft cotton body, and her movable head and limbs are made of smooth vinyl. Includes the paperback book No Ordinary Sound, the first book of Melody’s stories, abridged and richly illustrated in full color.
