Helpful Score: 3
OK, yeah, this is a Disney cartoon. I'm over it.
What I'm NOT over is the discussion my high schoolers were having today about girls' representations in Disney movies. They all, boys AND girls, commented on how Mulan is a girl who kicks major booty, doesn't wait around for her prince, doesn't back down in the face of injustice, and stands up for her rights, even when all say she's wrong. The girls said they admire her, and the boys said they're scared of her. GIRL POWER!
This is a nice telling of the story, complete with full-color illustrations of that fierce woman: Mulan!
