Ella Enchanted
Many of the old tales which are classics in their own right are in need of a rewrite, a modern approach, updated for today's audiences. The movie Ever After was such an attempt, but in trying to make a stronger female character, she just sounds annoying somehow. AT any rate, to my mind they failed. This book excels, marvelously. This is the Cinderella story we all wish we knew. Ella is strong-willed, but not aggressive. It's also a fun and emotional story. Give it to your daughter, or read it with her, I assure you, you'll both enjoy it. The Newberry Award is definetly justly given to this book.
Ella Enchanted
This book was one of the most exciting books I've read in a long time. The author has an amazing style of drawing you into the characters. You get to know them and you actually FEEL their pain. The main character Ella has a "gift" of obedience (i.e. a CURSE) from a "well-meaning" fairy... she MUST obey any order given to her. Throughout the book you hurt right along with Ella as she struggles to overcome the curse.. but can't--therefore making her liable to playing the pawn to anyone's orders--the poor girl would even walk into a fire and kill herself if someone ordered it. You'll be ready to rip the book apart during times when her enemies use her.. and you'll cry with distress and anger at the torment the poor girl is put through. Its a wonderful twist on the classic Cinderella story! Its a definate MUST read for everyone who loves classic fairy tales! Get this book now!

Ella Enchanted
Hey, I'd give it more stars if I could. However this program lets me go up to only five. I fell in love with this book the first time I read it, then again, maybe I'm just a hopeless romantic. Ella is enchanted with a curse of a well-meaning fairy - she must obey every command given her, even if it meant chopping off her own head. Sadly, her mother dies, but this is when she meets the Prince and becomes great friends with him. Or maybe something more... but how can she stay with him with greedy stepsisters and a curse that could destroy him? Find out. I first read this book in third grade, and I am now in eighth. It's worth reading more than once.
Ella Enchanted
Ella Enchanted is one of the best books of all time! This fantasy is about a teenage girl, but not just your average, ordinary girl in the town of Fren (keep in mind that this is a fantasy), This is Ella! The girl who is cursed by obediance. When Ella was born, Lucinda (the fairy) cast a horrible spell on Ella, which Lucinda mistook it as a gift. Lucinda made Ella obey any and all orders you gave her. So if you told her to clean your room, do your chores, are even chop off her head, she'd have to do it.Ella must go on a fun-filled, sad, ecxiting and interesting, and even dangerous quest involving hungry ogres ready to cook you and gobble you up, or if they are in a hurry, eat you raw. Ella must fight for her life and rights to leave her obediance behind and save herself from being doomed to do anything you say, and from her evil money-hungry stepsisters and step mother mother. And, while doing that, she must also save her boy friend, Prince Charmont (Char) assuming King of all Kyrria. You want to find out how? You should read this wonderful fantasy and find out!
