Summary: This has to be the best book I've ever read!!!
Review: I read a lot of books about different subjets this summer from 'Go Ask Alice' to 'Dealing With Dragons' and this has to be my favorite one! It's the best fairy tale I've ever read because it tells a well known story that I've heard a million times and makes it politically correct by showing Ella's courage through the dangerous perils she faced. It also explains the reason the prince fell in love with her. Does anyone one think that a well-educated prince will fall in love witha girl beacause she's pretty and she can dance well? He fell in love with Ella because of her knowledge and skills. She could speak most of the many languages in the kingdom and she learned to charm giants. Dispite her mask the prince could still fall in love with her. Ella is one of the bravest heroines I've read about. She overcame the impossible through her love of the prince. This book deserves 5 stars!!

Summary: Great book for preteen girls
Review: This is a marvelous book for girls, although boys would enjoy it also. It's about a girl who is cursed to obey anything anyone tells her. The characters were a delightful mix of good and evil. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone over the age of 10.

Summary: The Best! Enchanting!
Review: Ella Enchanted was the best book I ever read! It is a fasinating story of a girl in relation to Cinderella. She is very selfwitted to leave her Finishing School after her father, Sir Peter sent her there. She is a charming fantasy character along with her other friends like the Dragons and enemys like the ogres. She keeps herself from marring the prince at first intill breaking the spell. A charming story for young,adventure lovers.

Summary: Enchanted me as well
Review: This really is an enchanting, delightful novelization of the Cinderella tale, complete with a spunky, intelligent heroine. I found the writing a little simplistic at my age (I'm in my 30s) but I highly recommend it for teenagers. Really, though, anyone who enjoys fairy tale novels will think this worth a read. It compares fairly well to Robin McKinley's Beauty, The Blue Sword and The Hero and the Crown, although the writing in those books is a couple of levels more complex. Give those a read too if you haven't yet!

Summary: We thought this was the best fairy tale ever written.
Review: We all loved this book. Ella Enchanted, despite her curse of obedience, is brave, generous, independent and funny. We loved it when Ella gave Hattie the flowers to smell, making her tell the truth, and we were touched when Ella found out who her fairy godmother was. We cried when Ella and Prince Char were dancing and he whispered a poem in her ear. Ella showed her cunning when she tricked the ogres and got Prince Char's men to tie them up. Ella has to make some tough decisions. Read this book - laugh and cry - and find out how Ella breaks the curse. You will read it under the covers with a flashlight.

Summary: I loved it!
Review: Amongst all the Cinderella tales out there this one shines like a star. Finally a Cinderella who is clever, brave, and witty, and still has an excuse as to why she lets the Evil Stepmother and Co. boss her around. Why? Well one ditzy fairy named Lucinda who is convinced that being blessed (ahem cursed.) with obedience is a wonderful thing. This tale has everything from the original tale of Cinderella (glass slipers, diapearing Coach, Evil Stepmother and company) and still has room for a host of new characters like elves, gnomes, ogres and giants. Best of all is Prince Charmont, who is a dashing, hansome, young prince who achieves somthing that no other Cinderella prince up to this point has achieved: realism and wit. I enjoyed this book and would recomend this to anyone.
