Il fallait une âme soeur au Maca. Des Wavriens ont imaginé une charmante adolescente, la Crapaute. Agréablement installée dans la cour de l'Hôtel de l'Escaille au bord d'une pièce d'eau en forme de nénuphar, elle joue avec un crapaud. Elle est l'oeuvre d'Yvon Mattagne, d'après un dessin de Dominique Pierre.
