Ella Enchanted

Ella Enchanted

Do you believe in magical kingdoms, fairytales, adventures and love? If so Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine is the book for you. Ella Enchanted is a book about a young girl who lives in the kingdom of Frell with her mother and sometimes absent father who is never around. Ella is a normal girl living the perfect life except for one thing. When she was born, her fairy godmother Lucinda gave her a "gift" that accidentally turned out to be a curse. She was given the gift...well curse of obedience. She had to obey, and do exactly what anyone told her. This means that if this secret fell into the wrong hands it could cause Ella lots of harm and danger. When her mother dies, Ella feels lost and alone in the world. Along with her father, she is forced to live with stepsisters and a stepmother. Though her world seems to be crumbling, Ella manages to see the bright side of things. She is tired of her "gift," and decides to go on a quest to search for her fairy god-mother, for only she can break the curse. Throughout her journey, she makes many new friends, and enemies. She also falls in love with Prince Charmont, but is afraid to tell him her true feelings because of the curse. At the end of her quest, she finally gets the power to say yes or no to orders. I recommend this book for children of ages 7-14.

This book is an exciting adventure that is an enjoyable read. The plot is what makes the book so good. It keeps the reader interested in what's going. It does so with its many up and down events.

This book was enjoyable also because of the sense of humor the author used. It makes the reader laugh, and is smart, funny, and witty. It also has a good mix of moods and tones. Some parts of the book are sad and tragic, but it doesn't stay that way too long.

Another reason I liked this story because of the characters. Each and every character was unique and had great personalities. The way the author described them and used detail was what made me love the characters. Their descriptions made them unique.

Ella Enchanted by Gail Levine Carson is an easy enjoyable read. The recommended by age group would be between ages 7-14. This tale original story and is fun, humorous and a great adventure that never gets old.

The Twists Of "Ella Enchanted"

The book of"Ella Enchanted", by Gail Carson Levine, is an excellent book. If I had a choice to rate this book for the stars I'd give it 5 stars.
In this book there is a girl named Eleanor of Frell, who is also called Ella. I gave this book 5 stars because of the magic and fantasy, as in the fairy named Lucinda giving the gift of obedience, but I didn't expect the fairy's gift could be a curse? The story also gave examples of what she would have to do if she was ordered to do something. As in, if Ella was given a command hop in the rain for one hour, then she would have to. If she was told to kill someone, she would have to. Every second of her life was in danger. I also like this story because it shows tragety and sorrow. Ella had to go through some difficulties with her family. Her mother had died due to sickness and her father had remarried to an evil stepmother, Dame Olga, with two other daughters, Hattie and Olive.
I rated this story as I did because it also involves unexpected turns and disbelief. Like Mandy, her cook, and Prince Char to talk to when she feels sad. Later, Ella had found out that Mandy was her fairy godmother all along! This story also involves andventure and mayhem. After Ella had found out that Lucinda was the fairy who gave her the gift of obedience, she had started her journey to find her and try to remove the spell forever, except Lucinda didn't remove it, Ella had to find a way herself. This story includes romance and the decission of Prince Char's saftey. He had ordered her to marry him but Hattie ordered her to her room. This was when Ella was able to break the curse! She didn't have to take anymore commands and was free at last.
A title that I'd recommend if you like stories along the lines of fantasy, magic, tragety, sorrow, unexpected turns, and romance, it would be "The Two Princesses of Barremere". I personally loved both books and have more to come.

Ella Enchanted by: Gail Carson Levine

I will always love the book Ella Enchanted! It is the next classic in books. It captured nearly every good feeling I've ever had. I guess it is just closely related to my life, or any other individual's life. Ella Enchanted is based on the story of Cinderella. The author changes things to add humor and heartache. She did a beautiful job! Ella, The main character is very clumsy and it causes you to constantly laugh when she does really dumb things. Sometimes here clumsiness goes too far, gets in other peoples way, and gets her in big trouble. She of course falls in love, but many things are getting in her way. Everything is solved and put together for a happy ending. Just like all of our lives, this book shows the hard work we put into our happy endings. Life is hard but we can all live happily ever after.

Ella Enchanted is about a teenage girl from the kingdom/town of Frell. I have both read the book and seen the movie, and am glad to report that both are WONDERFUL!
