Summary: A great book
Review: "Ella Enchanted" is a wonderful book, I couldn't put it down for 2 days and then when I finished it I started it again. The author wrote the classic Cinderella story with a twist: Ella, a girl who lives in the fairy tale world of gnomes, dwarfs, fairies, and ogres, has a curse that she must obey any order given to her, even if it is to cut off her own head. This is the story of her adventures and misfortunes when her stepfamily finds out she must obey their every command. This is a wonderful book, I would recommend it to anyone and everyone.

Summary: ~^*Awesome*^~
Review: This book and the Harry Potter books are my favourites ever! I'm 14 and I've read this book twice...it still is just as good as the first time I read it. I have never read a book that made me laugh so much. You end up feeling as if you know Ella and Char(the prince). I loved reading their letters back and forth to each other and the author describes things with so much detail that I couldn't help but picture every moment of the book. I still am thinking about reading it for a third time. It's an amazing twist of Cinderella. I didn't even realize it was a Cinderella type of story until 50 pages before the end because it's its own tale. If I had to choose between Harry Potter and this book, I really do think I'd choose this book. I could just picture Ella at the giants' wedding eating the gigantic cheese puff and the cheese oozing all over. LOL. You will seriously regret it if you do not read this book! I loved it and I know that the adults out there that read those romance novels(maybe you're one of them) would love it too! It has romance, it has excitement, battle, mystical creatures, and of course, it's topped off with the wicked stepmother and sisters. I started this book the first time as a one day read for silent reading in the 7th grade and I realized I couldn't put it down after the first 10 pages so I completely ditched the other book I was reading for it. Right away the action in this book happens and it gets better every time you turn the page. ^_^

Summary: Simply Enchanting!
Review: It's hard to describe how much I love this book! It's fluidity and originality makes ELLA ENCHANTED a classic in my eyes. The author immediately creates a connection between the characters and the reader. After reading the first chapter, the reader feels a bond with the cursed Ella, her mischievous mother, and her loving cook, Mandy. As Ella faces the effects of a fairy gift gone amiss, the reader also faces them. Whether hurt by an uncaring father, mistreated by envious stepsisters, or simply hastled by terrible ogres, Ella's pain is the reader's pain. Equually, her successes, triumphs, and love for Char are shared with reader. Join in with Ella, Char, Mandy, the giants, the ogres, and other memorable characters on countless adventures. You're sure to love it!

Review: I read this book the first time because some one suggested it, but i read it the second time because i loed it! It is one of the best fantasy books. It is a Cinderella story with orges, elves, and so much more. It is one of my favorite books. It is about a girl named Ella. She really is very close to her mom. When her mom dies her dad tries to take care of her but cannot. For this reason he marries again. Ella's new family abuse Ella misfortune (her curse). The ending you will need to read but i suggest you do. Happy reading

Summary: An instant classic
Review: Ella Enchanted has been the rage of children's books for a few years now, and will certainly be there for quite a while...in this re-telling of the Cinderella tale, Ella is born a fussy little baby, and when then the fairies come to bestow their blessing on the baby one fairy laid a curse instead of a blessing. Lucinda, the fairy gave Ella the gift of obedience, so when ever Ella was given a command, she was forced to obey, even if it was not in her best interest. Ella was a model child, as you can imagine, but once her peers figured out Ella must obey them, Ella becomes tormented. Of course there's lots more to the story...but that's for you to find out... I can't wait to read it to my daughter when she gets a little older...and the theme (It's worth all the effort it takes to be who you really are) is priceless.

Summary: A Great Read
Review: Ms. Levine did a great job on this book. The plot was well set out, and the characters well described. A page turner, I got in trouble for reading it for the first time at two in the morning (oops). I really enjoy different takes to fairy tales, and this is a perfect examle. Anyway, although it's a fairly easy read, I highly recommend this book to anyone (though I'm not too sure my brother would like it), fairy tale or love story lover, or if you're just looking for a great read.

Summary: Ella Enchanted, A Very Enchanting Book
Review: What can I say except this book is a real thriller! It is so fascinating it is hard to put down. With a curse that makes you obey any command anything can happen. Ella is fifteen and quite out of the ordinary. This girl can speak or imitate any language she hears. In this book she encounters elves, giants, and even some nasty ogres who almost eat her! But what really makes this book a must buy is Ella's determination to break the spell that is upon her. She tries and tries, yet she doesn't succeed until she has an unbelievable meeting with the prince, Char! This thriller is wonderful. All the characters including Mum Olga, Hattie, and Olive, make the book Ella Enchanted everything it is. You have to read this book.

Summary: Funny, interesting and exciting (7.5 yr old)
Review: It has a lot of magic, like centaurs, elves and ogres. It is funny with the giants at the end, they like strangers more than they like friends to come to their weddings. Whenever you read one chapter, you always want to read the next chapter.
