And I too love Just Ella, though I can't remember much about it other than that.<br /><br />alison, I have that picture book too and it is quite good - a down to earth version, I'd say.<br /><br />Suey, and here I was hoping she'd publish a few more for me to read!<br /><br />NotNessie, amen about Eleanora.

I remember having read some of Ella Enchanted when I was younger, but I don't remember a whole lot, except for being furious at her step-sisters. The idea that Ella is forced to do things for others is, however, very creative - any other girl could easily kick over the bucket of soapy water and announce that she's leaving.Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15602756712271124931noreply@blogger.com
