Princess Ponies / int_166e33f3 | comment |
Little Miss Badass: Pippa is this, but it takes until the second book to really start showing. She's a young girl, but she's willing to put herself in dangerous or life threatening situations (like potentially being sucked into a powerful whirlpool or jumping between two horses going full gallop) to save Chevalia. | |

Princess Ponies / int_1f14978d | comment |
Talking Animal: Played With. Stardust implies it's not so much the sentient horses of Chevalia can talk as Pippa is magically able to understand their language for the same reasons she can see the island in the first place. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
Princess Ponies / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: During the second book, Pippa runs all the way down a lengthy path to the sea shore to meet with Rosella and Triton, then tries to run to the second horseshoe, through unstable ground quickly being covered in water. She gets exhausted long before she reaches it. Stardust then does the same to come help her...and the same exact thing happens. While Stardust does have better stamina, she's still a princess, not an athlete, and thus isn't conditioned for this sort of thing. In contrast, her best friend Blossom, who is an athlete, isn't winded from running Pippa the entire way. | |

The heroes only have until Midsummer's Day to retrieve the golden horseshoes during the first Story Arc, or Chevalia will sink into the sea and take their entire civilization with it. | |

All Girls Like Ponies: Pippa certainly does...but as it turns out, little ponies like little girls too and Stardust feels the same about her as does Cinder. Both get a laugh out of this when Stardust realizes and agree to be friends instead. | |

The Power of Love | |
Princess Ponies / int_6a696742 | comment |
The Power of Love: Chevalia's magic is powered by the love of humans for ponies and horses, channeled through the golden horseshoes. This is also why only those who love them can see Chevalia. | |

Princess Ponies / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: Pippa's full name is Philippa, which means 'Lover of Horses' (or Lover of Ponies). She is one, and it's one reason why she's taken to help save Chevalia: only someone who loves horses or ponies can see Chevalia, let alone go there. | |

Covers Always Lie | |
Princess Ponies / int_7315fd38 | comment |
Covers Always Lie: The covers to the books look like generic little girl's books, but the author's actual intention was to give young girls something more than that. The books are actually fantasy adventure stories with a lot more intense situations than is standard for the target audience. Lampshaded by Jeff Norton during an interview, who admitted they were the publisher's idea to better appeal to the target demographic and if he had his way, they'd look like Indiana Jones posters. | |

Face Your Fears | |
Princess Ponies / int_77c0952e | comment |
Face Your Fears: Pippa is afraid of heights, with some implications of vertigo. Given the Central Theme of the books is bravery, she naturally has to face this fear to retrieve several of the horseshoes. | |

Big Damn Heroes: At the climax of the second book, Pippa and Stardust are racing to retrieve the second horseshoe before the tide rises and it's washed into the ocean. Both are exhausted and if the tide comes in while they're too close, they run the risk of dying in a whirlpool. Stardust's best friend Blossom, who Pippa helped earlier, arrives just in time to take Pippa the rest of the way to get it. | |

Innocently Insensitive: Princess Stardust has this as a flaw. She keeps forgetting Pippa doesn't like being called her pet and has to be reminded of such. In the second book, she accidentally seriously upsets her best friend Blossom by saying she's now her 'second best friend' after Pippa, not considering how this might make her feel. Pippa calls her out on it. | |
