Description:
Ella Enchanted is a well written young adult novel based on the Cinderella fairy tale. It is much modernized in the telling. Ella has one problem in life, a fairy enchanted her at birth with the need to obey any order no matter how dangerous. At times, the conflict this causes is quite humorous. Despite this, Ella is quite gutsy and daring. She is able and willing to learn and speak many languages. Her romance with Prince Char is nicely done and focuses on communication and trust. It runs somewhat long at 231 pages but is an enjoyable read.
