When Ella is born, the foolish fairy Lucinda gives her the \u201cgift\u201d of obedience. This means Ella must follow any order, no matter how dangerous or unfair. At first, Ella\u2019s mother and their cook manage to protect her, but everything changes when her mother dies, and her father remarries. Ella\u2019s new stepsisters, Hattie and Olive, quickly discover her secret and use it to torment her. Hattie orders Ella not to eat, not to speak, and even to end her friendship with Areida, leaving Ella isolated and frustrated.<\/p><p>Despite these challenges, Ella\u2019s spirit remains strong. She meets Prince Char, whose kindness and sincerity win her heart, but Ella fears that her curse could force her to harm him or be used against the kingdom. Determined to break free, she sets out on a quest to find Lucinda and convince her to reverse the spell. Along the way, Ella encounters ogres, giants, and other magical creatures, each encounter revealing her bravery and cleverness.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-1654a6c elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1654a6c\" data-element_type=\"section\" id=\"details\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-58045ed\" data-id=\"58045ed\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-ea3d88e elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"ea3d88e\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-1e88a7b\" data-id=\"1e88a7b\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c150422 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c150422\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2>\u2b50 Book Details<\/h2>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c4f13be elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"c4f13be\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\r\n.mpp-details-section { max-width:760px; margin:0 auto; padding:20px 0; }\r\n.mpp-section-label { display:inline-block; font-size:14px; font-weight:700; text-transform:uppercase; letter-spacing:1px; color:#1dbb9d; margin-bottom:8px; }\r\n.mpp-details-section h2 { font-weight:800; color:#323a49; font-size:28px; margin-bottom:18px; }\r\n.mpp-details-table { width:100%; border-collapse:collapse; background:#fff; border-radius:12px; overflow:hidden; box-shadow:0 3px 14px rgba(0,0,0,.06); }\r\n.mpp-details-table tr:nth-child(even) { background:#fdf6ee; }\r\n.mpp-details-table td { padding:14px 20px; font-size:17px; color:#2d2d2d; }\r\n.mpp-details-table td:first-child { font-weight:700; color:#323a49; width:40%; }\r\n<\/style>  <div class=\"mpp-details-section\" id=\"details-ellaenchanted\">\r\n  <table class=\"mpp-details-table\">\r\n    <tr><td>Publication Date<\/td><td>April 25, 1997<\/td><\/tr>\r\n    <tr><td>Reading Level<\/td><td>Lexile 670L &bull; Scholastic Guided Reading Level U<\/td><\/tr>\r\n    <tr><td>Interest Level<\/td><td>Grades 3&ndash;5 (Age Range 8&ndash;12)<\/td><\/tr>\r\n    <tr><td>Major Awards<\/td><td>Newbery Honor Book<\/td><\/tr>\r\n    <tr><td>Length<\/td><td>240 pages (approx. 73,200 words)<\/td><\/tr>\r\n    <tr><td>Estimated Reading Time<\/td><td>About 4 hours and 53 minutes (at 250 words per minute)<\/td><\/tr>\r\n    <tr><td>Audiobook Length<\/td><td>5 hours, 43 minutes<\/td><\/tr>\r\n    <tr><td>Genre<\/td><td>Fairy tale<\/td><\/tr>\r\n    <tr><td>Setting<\/td><td>Kyrria &bull; Town of Frell<\/td><\/tr>\r\n    <tr><td>Point of View<\/td><td>First person, from Ella&rsquo;s perspective<\/td><\/tr>\r\n    <tr><td>Themes<\/td><td>Power &bull; Family &bull; Language &bull; Wealth &bull; Society and Class &bull; Rules and Order &bull; Choices<\/td><\/tr>\r\n    <tr><td>Memorable Quote<\/td><td>&ldquo;I wished she&rsquo;d never stop squeezing me.

While the movie does retain the basic storyline of the book and some of its key themes, the changes made to the plot, characters, and setting may be seen as significant by some readers.\u00a0<\/p><p>Here are some key differences:<\/p><h4>Age:<\/h4><p>In the book, Ella is only 15 years old, but in the movie, she is portrayed as a young adult.<\/p><h4>Plot:<\/h4><p>While the overall plot of the book is retained in the movie, there are several changes made to the story. For instance, in the movie, Prince Charmont (Char) is more of a main character. He plays a larger role in the plot than he does in the book. Also, the ending of the movie is different from the book.<\/p><h4>Characters:<\/h4><p>Several characters from the book are either omitted or reduced in importance in the movie. For example, Ella&#8217;s stepsisters are not as prominent in the movie as they are in the book. Additionally, the fairy Lucinda, who is a key character in the book, has a smaller role in the movie.<\/p><h4>Setting:<\/h4><p>While the book is set in a medieval-like kingdom, the movie has a more modern feel to it, with a mix of medieval and contemporary elements.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-54442d7 elementor-widget
