Ella enchanted

"At her birth, Ella of Frell was given 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 or chopping off her own head! But strong-willed Ella does not tamely accept her fate. She goes on a quest, encountering ogres, giants, wicked stepsisters, fairy godmothers, and handsome princes, determined to break the curse - and live happily ever after." P. [4] of cover.
