Ella Enchanted

Typical uninteresting reading that is assigned in grade school. Trying to interest an 11 year old boy in reading this is nearly impossible.

Good role model girl

I loved this book every time I closed it I opened it right back up.

I loved this book! How great it is to have freedom to choose to be obedient. I love the twist of the fairy tale.

Ella Enchanted is by far one of my favorite action adventure stories. Ella, the main character is a smart, vivacious, intelligent young girl who uses good sense and a touch of spunk to get through tough real life scenarios such as the loss of a mother, the jealousy and dysfunction of a step family, and the confusion that comes from having a selfish father. All of these real life things that are difficult to walk through are set in a beautiful scenery of imagination, where Ella battles ogres, falls in love with a prince, and dances in glass slippers. Just writing about it makes me want to read it again. It has been ten years now since I first read this book, and I still hold it in high esteem

Such a powerful message to little girls. Save yourself!

What a wonderful book! Written again by the fame-struck Gail Carson Levine. My kids both loved it and they are 8 and 11. I think it was a little too violent for my 8 year old, but she liked it anyway! She's a toughie and was trembling at the violent parts, so I'd say this book is better for 9 or 10 year olds...
