''Ella and Friends'' (Finnish: ''Ella ja Kaverit'') is a Finnish children's book series created by Timo Parvela. The books are about the adventures of elementary schooler Ella and her friends who go to the same class at school and their unnamed teacher.

The series has two film adaptations, ''Ella and Friends'' (2012) and ''Ella and Friends 2: Paterock'' (2013).


!!Provides examples of:
* AdaptationExpansion: In the books, it's never mentioned where Anna got her horn from. The first movie mentions that she stole it from her father, who is angry about it as it was given to him by his late wife.
* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: The teacher is only ever called "teacher" and his real name is unknown.
* HeldBackInSchool: The entire class gets held back at least twice due to failing to learn the multiplication tables.
* HiddenDepths: Ella calls Tiina "so ordinary" a lot, like there's nothing special about her. But "Ella aalloilla" reveals that she has "saltwater brain" and is extremely competent at the sea, being able to steer a ship in a storm to safety despite being eight years old.
* MadLibsCatchphrase: Pukari loves to threaten others by saying "I'll X you in the Y if you [do something he doesn't want them to do].
* OddFriendship: Pate the KindheartedSimpleton and Pukari, who is constantly threatening to beat people up, are best friends.
* OpeningNarration: Most books start with Ella saying "I'm Ella. I'm on the Xth grade. We have a nice class and a nice teacher."
* PaperThinDisguise: A lot of the books have the kids try to disguise themselves as adults by putting on fake beards made of cotton, which never fails a single adult.
* PragmaticAdaptation: In "Ella ja Äf Yksi", the kids race Äf on a bus pulled by dogs. As that would likely be hard to film, in the movie the dogs fail to pull the bus, and the way Äf loses is different.
* ProneToTears: It's very easy to make Samppa cry.
* TheSmartGuy: Tuukka, but only by elementary schooler standards. The other kids call him a genius, though.
* UnspokenPlanGuarantee: Tuukka's plans usually go as follows:
** 1. X is in danger.
** 2. We couldn't think of anything for this part.
** 3. The world will be saved.
* WomenAreWiser: The teacher's wife is a lot wiser than her husband and tells him off for his shenanigans a lot.
