Annotation:
This novel picks up where the story of Cinderella traditionally ends. As the story unfolds, Ella discovers that life is not as perfect as she imagined it would be after she falls in love with Prince Charming. Now engaged to the prince, Ella learns that her new life as a princess will be very controlled and restricted--and that the man she knows as Prince Charming is actually very boring and not someone she's interested in marrying.

Praise
Science Fiction Chronicle
"Sometimes "and they lived happily ever after" isn't the end of the story. That's the premise of Margaret Preston Haddix's charming JUST ELLA, which revisits the classic rags-to-riches fairy story to show what happens after Cinderella meets her Prince Charming....JUST ELLA is a more than worthy varient on an old favorite....Highly recommended." - Michael Jones May 2003
