Yes, Prince Charming really is listed at #20 and Cinderella is #26.
Here are a few others that relate to our class:
Mickey Mouse #18
The Little Engine That Could #31
Alice in Wonderland #34
Bambi #41
Barbie #43
Hansel & Gretel #52
Ugly Duckling #55
Nancy Drew #62
Cat in the Hat #79
I'm very surprised that Harry Potter isn't included in this list. I'm also puzzled as to how The Marlboro Man claimed the #1 spot...
Thanks for posting this, Lauren! I, too, am puzzled about Marlboro Man, but I guess they have their reasons...their book has a little chapter on each that provides the method behind the madness--it's definitely worth checking out!
ReplyDeleteI suppose maybe Harry Potter isn't on the list because he just hasn't been around long enough? The list seems to include only those characters who have cemented a place for themselves in pop culture AND have done so for a long time. Still, it'd be interesting (and fun!) for our class to create our own list. :)
(it's because harry potter EXISTS!)
