Ella Enchanted: Ella has a problem. At birth, a 'gift' of obediance was given to her by a fairy. Her whole life she's tried to find the fairy, Lucinda, buut hasn't suceeded. When her mother dies she meets the prince at the funeral and they become friends. Soon after that Ella is sent to a finishing school with two girls who are out to torture her. At the school her only comfort is her friend, but she is ordered not to be friends any more. She runs away and hears that her father is at a giant wedding where he thinks there might be fairies. Maybe Lucinda was there! On her way, she is captured by ogres and rescued by the prince. One of Char's knights takes her to the wedding. Her father took her home before she could talk to Lucinda. He maries the mother of the two girls who she traveled with, and she is made a servant. Her fairy godmother makes her three beautiful dresses so she can go to the ball with Char. He says he loves her, and she finally breaks the spell so she can marry him and they live happily ever after.
Ella Enchanted is much better than the Disney version of Cinderella. Ella's problem isn't just an evil step-mother and sisters, she has a curse on her. I also liked that she had a book that changed stories and gave her letters that hadn't been sent off yet and pictures of things that are happening at home. It also made the story better when Lucinda wouldn't take the spell off and Ella had to break it herself.
