How to fix this crack?
This little statue is very precious to me, but I don't know what it's made of because I got it when I was six years old. So I need to know how to fix this crack:

Appears to be ceramic with a metalic glaze.
You can use a glue such as Elmer's, Super Glue, etc. but it's gonna show. You want something that will harden and therefore add strength to the figure . . . . a caulking or crack filler that doesn't harden won't add strength and the break could get worse. I've made similar repairs with a glue, setting the figure in such a way that the glue will run down into the crack. I wipe-off any excess, then when it has hardened used colored crayons to fill-in the gap over the glue.
The alternative is to find a professional ceramic/porcelain restorer who could probably make an invisible repair - that would cost about $100.
