Top 10 Disney Heroines (pg. 2)

5. Disney Heroines - Princess Jasmine (Aladdin)

Jasmine never saved the world from disaster, or battled mega-demons, but she certainly isn't afraid to speak her own mind. The free-spirited princess runs away from home to avoid marrying a man she doesn't love and to avoid the confines of palace life. She faces danger and captivity, but is shrewd and cunning enough to get herself out of some seriously tricky situations - with a little help from Aladdin, of course.

4. Disney Heroines - Alice (Alice in Wonderland)

Alice is a curious spirit, who is a lot more than the "sugar, spice and everything nice" cliché. In fact, she's defiant, talks back to adults, and won't be pushed around. Alice is by no means fearless, but she certainly doesn't let fear get in the way of her adventurous spirit. She gets bonus points for not being even slightly boy crazy. High five for realizing there is more to life, Alice!

3. Disney Heroines - Lilo (Lilo & Stitch)

Lilo is a young, feisty Hawaiian girl, who is brave and devoted in the face of danger. She stands up to people who mock her out-of-this-world pal Stitch, her powerful belief in "Ohana", or family.

2. Disney Heroines - Pocahontas (Pocahontas)

Gutsy and heroic, Pocahontas helped bridge the gap between Native Americans and European Settlers in an attempt to prevent violence and misunderstanding. She put the needs of her community before her own desire to be with the man she loved, and that makes Pocohontas a true heroine.

1. Disney Heroines - Mulan (Mulan)

Mulan takes the top spot for being the bravest, smartest, and most fearless Disney heroine to date. Mulan disguises herself as a man to take her aging father's place in the Chinese army. She learns quickly, and eventually helps to save the Imperial City from the invading Huns. While there are plenty of Disney princesses out there, Mulan is one of the few real warriors.
