국내에는 "마법에 걸린 엘라"라는 제목으로 번역서가 출간된 도서입니다.
태어날 때부터 요정의 바보같은 실수로 인해 "복종"을 해야만 하는 운명을 갖게 된 엘라는, 성장을 하면서 자신에게 부여 된 저주에 정면으로 맞서서 자신의 운명을 새로 개척해 나갑니다... 유머와 반전이 가득한 재미있는 소설입니다.
귀엽고 생동감 넘치는 새로운 ‘신데렐라’ 이야기를 담은 동화이지만, 이 책의 주인공 엘라는 그냥 착해빠진 신데렐라가 아닙니다. 도깨비 말도 잘하고 계단 난간 타기를 즐기며 자신을 괴롭히던 친구에서 주먹을 날리거나, 복수를 위해 이복 언니의 가발을 몰래 훔치기도 하는, 생생하게 살아서 웃고 울고 성내고 질투하고 감동하는 그런 소녀지요. 왕자와 결혼하고 나서도 21세기의 새로운 신데렐라의 모습을 보여줍니다.

Book Description
How can a fairy's blessing be such a curse? At her birth, Ella of Frell was the unfortunate recipient of a foolish fairy's gift--the "gift' of obedience. Ella must obey any order given to her, whether it's hopping on one foot for a day and a half, or chopping off her own head! But strong-willed Ella does not tamely accept her fate. Against a bold backdrop of princes, ogres, giants, wicked stepsisters, and fairy godmothers, Ella goes on a quest to break the curse--once and for all. In this incredible debut novel comes the richly entertaining story of Ella of Frell, who at birth was given the gift of obedience by a fairy. Ella soon realizes that this gift is little better than a curse, for how can she truly be herself if at anytime anyone can order her to hop on one foot, or cut off her hand, or betray her kingdom'and she'll have to obey? Against a bold tapestry of princes, ogres, giants, wicked stepsisters, and fairy godmothers, Ella's quest to break the curse once and for all and discover who she really is is as sharply funny as Catherine, Called Birdy and as richly poignant as Beauty, and has all the marks of a classic in the making.
