This beloved Newbery Honor-winning story about a feisty heroine is sure to enchant readers new and old.  At her birth, Ella of Frell receives a foolish fairy's gift--the "gift" of obedience. Ella must obey any order, whether it's to hop on one foot for a day and a half, or to chop off...

A girl cursed at birth to be obedient finds herself a servant in her own home after falling in love with the heir to throne in this classic Newbery Honor Book. (Children's Fiction Grades 3-5)
