Summary: Ella is Enchanted
Review: (...) Ella Enchanted is by Gail Carson Levine. The book is about a girl named Eleanor. (Ella for short) A fairy named Lucinda cursed her. She cursed her with obedience. Anything said to her as a command was done right away. Lucinda thinks of her curses as gifts. She cursed many babies. Ella's mom died from a sickness. At her funeral Ella met Prince Charmont. (Char for short) Ella's dad was a merchant. His name was Sir Peter. He had to come and take care of Ella. Soon they became very poor. Sir Peter married a very rich lady, Olga. Olga had 2 daughters, Hattie and Olive. They treated Ella like a slave. Ella found out Char was leaving to fight ogres. They wrote back and forth to each other. In one letter she found out there would be 3 balls to invite him back. He was to pick his wife at one.....................

You should really buy this book. It took me on an amazing trip. It is a truly improved Cinderella! If you go to watch the movie, it won't be as great. There are to many changes in it. Ella is a true heroine. You will have to find out why! Ella tells you exactly how she felt in the book at all times. You actually feel how she felt. It is also very descriptive. You can picture those ugly ogres. You will see what it would be like to be in a
enchanted world. You probably think it would be like calling: "MAGIC LADY get here." But it's nothing like that. It's just as tough as the real world. Once again buy this book. 5 stars guaranteed.

Summary: Awesome! The best variation of Cinderella EVER!!!
Review: An AWesome book!
It's a story about a girl who had a blessing/curse by a fairy to always be obediant, and has a hard life with twists and turns that you normally wouldn't expect in a book. At first I didn't know that it was a Cinderella book. Pick this book up at your local library, I promise you'll enjoy it!

Summary: Ella Really is Enchanted
Review: Report By: JB

The book Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine is about a girl named, Eleanor (Ella) who was cursed by a fairy named, Lucinda. Lucinda is a crazy fairy who thinks that all of her curses are gifts. Lucinda decided to give Ella the "gift" of obedience. Ella had to grow up following orders, whether she wanted to or not. Ella's mom died one night when Ella was very young so she lived with her father. Ella's dad was a king so, therefore, Ella was a princess. Before Ella's mom died, Ella didn't see her father often because he was so busy. She was so upset when her mother had died but, she was not alone. She had a great friend living with her, the cook. The cook's name is Mandy. After Ella's mom died Mandy told Ella that she was her fairy godmother. Mandy was also Ella's mom's fairy godmother, too. Ella was born part fairy due to her very small feet which made her very clumsy. Fairies seem to trip themselves all the time.

One day Prince Charmont arrived in town. He bumped into Ella and they met for the first time. Ella fell in love with him right away. Ella has many great friends but, there are also a few people that she hates. Dame Olga and her two daughters, Hattie and Olive. Hattie is the oldest and the most selfish in the family. She makes Ella do horrible things.

One night at dinner Ella's father told her that she should be sent to finishing school because she is so clumsy. At finishing school Ella would learn how to be a proper young lady. Ella didn't want to go especially because Hattie and Olive would be going too. Before Ella left, Mandy gave her a magic book that could show what people are doing; it could show people's diary entries and letters. One night Ella found her father's invitation to a giant's wedding. Fairies always go to giant's weddings and Ella knew that if fairies were going to be there then maybe she might find Lucinda and ask her to take the "gift" back. Ella escaped finishing school to go to the wedding. On her way to the wedding through the woods she was faced with ogres. She didn't care, she just didn't want to be obedient anymore. Along her journey she met an elf and became good friends. Also, Ella had a fight with three ogres. They ordered her to get into a pot and be boiled. Was Ella going to die right when the adventure began to have her "gift" taken back? Was she going to ever see her love again, Prince Char?

This was an amazing book. It teaches people to appreciate what they have and not to always want more. It was a very creative story. It is a fairy tale story that makes you feel like it is real. I recommend this book to people of ALL AGES! It was totally awesome!!!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A book for anyone!
Review: I read this book a couple of years ago, because I love Cinderella and any story having to do with her, and absolutely fell in love with this book! I borrowed it from a friend of mine, and was sorry when I had to return it. The plot is very clever, and has a very happy ending. I am so excited that it's going to be made into a movie now! I really recommend this book!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Not quite the typical Cinderella
Review: Ella Enchanted is a great book that every girl should read. It is a wonderful refreshing twist on the Cinderella Story. Sure Ella had a curse put on her at birth, she has a fairy godmother, an evil step mother and sisters, and she falls in love with a prince, but she can think and take care of herself. The book follows Ella on her journey to find Lucinda, the fairy who cursed, or blessed in her opinion, Ella with obedience. She runs into ogres, gnomes, and even giants along the way, but her determination keeps her going. If you read it once you will read it again, it's that good.

Summary: Ella Enchanted (The Movie)
Review: Ella Enchanted
By Amonymous

Ella Enchanted is an "enchanting" movie that has you on the tip of your seat. This exciting film is about a teenage girl whose curse it is to follow orders. But along the way it sets her on a breathtaking journey.

No matter what she is told to do, Ella must do it, even if it is to kill. So she sets off to find an air-headed fairy named Lucinda who gave her this so-called "gift." But along the way she (literally) runs into many problems and her true love.

Actress Anne Hathaway (Ella) and Actor Hugh Dancy (Prince Char) light up the screen with their amazing acting ability. Only after the movie you realize that they are just actor doing their jobs.

This movie is actually based on the book and follows it well. It is not like other movies that are an embarrassment to the original story. If you have read the book you will love this movie.

Some movies you see once and then the second time you see it it is boring. But in Ella Enchanted, every time you watch it you see something that you didn't see before.

Ella Enchanted is a wonderful Cinderella story that will delight children and adults for years to come. THIS MOVIE IS RATED PG FOR LANGUAGE AND CRUDE HUMOR. ELLA ENCHANTED IS NOW IN THEATERS.

Rating: 4 stars

Summary: A Truely Enchanted Book
Review: I first read this book in sixth grade and fell in love with it. I wish I owned it! This book is defiantly my favorite
version of all the Cinderella stories. I highly recommend this book to all. I'm just hoping the movie isn't going to
be totally different from the book, like the movie they made based on the book A Ring of Endless Light. Trust me,
you will love this book.
