Narration As Books Ella Enchanted (Ella Enchanted #1)

At birth, Ella is inadvertently cursed by an imprudent young fairy named Lucinda, who bestows on her the "gift" of obedience. Anything anyone tells her to do, Ella must obey. Another girl might have been cowed by this affliction, but not feisty Ella: "Instead of making me docile, Lucinda's curse made a rebel of me. Or perhaps I was that way naturally." When her beloved mother dies, leaving her in the care of a mostly absent and avaricious father, and later, a loathsome stepmother and two treacherous stepsisters, Ella's life and well-being seem to be in grave peril. But her intelligence and saucy nature keep her in good stead as she sets out on a quest for freedom and self-discovery as she tries to track down Lucinda to undo the curse, fending off ogres, befriending elves, and falling in love with a prince along the way. Yes, there is a pumpkin coach, a glass slipper, and a happily ever after, but this is the most remarkable, delightful, and profound version of Cinderella you'll ever read.

Gail Carson Levine's examination of traditional female roles in fairy tales takes some satisfying twists and deviations from the original. Ella is bound by obedience against her will, and takes matters in her own hands with ambition and verve. Her relationship with the prince is balanced and based on humor and mutual respect; in fact, it is she who ultimately rescues him. Ella Enchanted has won many well-deserved awards, including a Newbery Honor.

Critique Containing Books Ella Enchanted (Ella Enchanted #1)

This still stands as one of my favorite books. The fantasy elements are clever and not too over the top. Ella is witty and pretty clever herself, not to mention strong and determined and resourceful. Mandy is just your everyday, ordinary, regular old cook/fairy. Char is, appropriately, charming. The stepsisters are deliciously evil. Lucinda is completely batty.I like that none of the women in the book are doormats. Good or evil, protagonist or minor background character, they have an opinion,

just as good on the 800th read----i will reread this book infinity times.----Have I mentioned I love middle grade? Because hey, guess what, I absolutely goddamn love middle grade. (I feel like I shouldnt say goddamn in a review of a childrens book, but also I am still me. I still have my brand to look out for, regardless of target audiences.)A n y w a y. This book rules.https://emmareadstoomuch.wordpress.co...I have a kind of complicated relationship with the movie. It has a reputation for being



Feminists often denounce traditional fairy tales because they perpetuate the ideals of a patriarchal society by encouraging girls to behave like proper princesses and wait for charming princes to take charge and save the day. In response to these traditional fairy tales, many authors have tried to reclaim the realm of fairy tales for girls. These retellings feature active protagonists who are not scared of taking charge and do not need princes to save them. One example of this new fairy tale

This is such a cozy, happy, safe favorite to come back to again and again and again. Bless Levine for writing it.

Such a cute story, it was a lot of fun!

Read for my 2018 women of speculative fiction challenge.And so, with laughter and love, we lived happily ever after.Welcome to the absolute PINNACLE of Charlottes Intense Childhood Nostalgia. I cant even tell you how many times I read this book when I was little I adored absolutely everything about it, and if ever there was a comfort re-read, this was IT for lil Char. There is pretty much no chance of objectivity with this one, but I think well all still have a good time with this review.
