11 Lessons We've Learned From Young Heroines in Literature

There are four Pevensie children in C. S. Lewis's The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, the first book in The Chronicles of Narnia series. But it's the youngest, 8-year-old Lucy, who really captures our hearts and ends up being the strongest and kindest character. Lucy, nicknamed "Queen Lucy the Valiant," is the most faithful of her siblings, having never stopped believing in Narnia and being the closest to Aslan. We love her courage, sweet demeanor, and that she doesn't give up even when she's ignored because of her status in the family.

Quoted: "I think — I don't know — but I think I could be brave enough."
