Peppermint Girl

The Peppermint Girl is a character from the 2001 film, Barbie in the Nutcracker. She first appears after Clara and the Nutcracker arrive in Parthenia, alongside the Gingerbread Boy.

Story
The Peppermint Girl encounters Clara and the Nutcracker when they enter the ruined Gingerbread Village. She and the Gingerbread Boy are the only citizens still living there. They went out to gather berries with Marzipan, only to find the village abandoned on their return. Clara and the Nutcracker take her and her brother with them, but both children are left behind when they go off on the Sugar Plum Princess expedition. Later, she and the Gingerbread Boy perform a dance and she knocks the Mouse King out of the sky with a snowball.

Personality
The Peppermint Girl (whose real name is never mentioned) is slightly friendlier than her brother; she trusts Clara after she gives back her doll, Patty. She also has a knack for throwing snowballs; besides using one to get rid of the Mouse King, she and her brother use them to defend themselves in the Gingerbread Village.

Appearance
The Peppermint Girl is a small child with blonde hair and blue eyes. She wears a pink-and-white striped outfit with a matching hat.
