From Amazon.com

In Just Ella, Margaret Peterson Haddix puts a spin on the traditional tale of the glass slippers. In her version, Ella (sans "Cinder") finds her own way to the ball (there was no fairy godmother, despite the rumors) and wins the heart of the prince. But now she is finding that life at the palace as Prince Charming's betrothed is not as great as she thought it was going to be. In fact, it's downright boring for a self-reliant and active girl to do needlework all day or listen to instructions on court etiquette from the strict and cold Madame Bisset. Worst of all, Ella is beginning to suspect that Charming's beautiful blue eyes and golden hair are attached to a head with nothing in it. Her young tutor Jed, however, talks with her about serious things that really matter. Ella finally gets up the courage to announce to Charming that she doesn't want to go through with the wedding, but when she finds herself locked in the dungeon she realizes it's not that easy to walk away from a politically arranged marriage. In the end, as in all good fairy tales, our heroine and hero do manage to live happily ever after--but with a twist.

Fairy tale retellings are an entrancing form of young adult fiction, as they add psychological insight and turn events around for a surprising contemporary angle. Teens who enjoy this delightful revamping of an age-old story may also enjoy Donna Jo Napoli's Spinners and Zel or the Newbery Honor book Ella Enchanted, by Gail Levine. (Ages 12 and older) --Patty Campbell --Ce texte provient de la Hardcover édition.



From Publishers Weekly

W wrote, "Haddix puts a feminist spin on the Cinderella story, beginning her tongue-in-cheek novel where the traditional story ends. Her straightforward, often gleefully glib narrative breathes fresh life into the tale." Ages 10-14.

4.0étoiles sur 5 A lesson in gender equality, Juil 14 2004

Ce commentaire est de: Just Ella (Paperback)
So many fairytales end with a simple "happily ever after" ... but is it ever really so simple?

Just Ella, by Margaret Peterson Haddix, turns the Cinderella story on its ear by exploring the young girl's motivations and examining gender roles that apply, honestly, more to modern times than they did in the medieval setting of the book. Still, young readers (and adults, too!) will enjoy this fractured version, which starts with Ella enduring lessons in etiquette, needlepoint and other princessly duties in the castle of her betrothed, Prince Charming. But, while the prince is, of course, charming and quite handsome to boot, Ella begins to wonder if that's a suitable foundation for lifelong romance.

Of note, this book gives us a Cinderella who does not rely on fairy godmothers, talking mice or convertible pumpkins to make her way to and from the prince's ball. Determined to go despite the scorn of the "step-evils" who plague her life, Ella uses the resources at hand and no small amount of ingenuity to get herself where she wants to be (as explained in a brief but entertaining flashback, in which we learn that glass slippers hurt).

5.0étoiles sur 5 Just Ella, Mai 24 2004
Par Un client
Ce commentaire est de: Just Ella (Paperback)
Just Ella is a terrific book! It's a perfect book for a romantic lover! And everyone that knows me knows that that's my kind of book. It's a great story about what happened after Cinderella and her prince get in their carriage.
Ella gets to live in the castle with everything you can imagine, but she only sees the prince once a week. During their engagement Ella learns that she is not in love with the prince. She does not want to live in the castle, nor have the prince's kids. She thinks about what she should do. She decides to tell him that she does nit want to marry him anymore. She does it... but they wont let her leave or do what she wants to do. They stick her in a jail cell. She is in there for days. A servant gives Ella a shovel. Ella digs herself out a day before the wedding. She walks to Jed, her love of her life. He is miles and mile away.
Does Ella make it to Jed? Does the prince go after her? Does Ella ever get married? This Cinderella story is a GREAT book! It has love, humor, and adventure in it. It will make you think. I promise... you'll LOVE it!
