The message of Beauty and the Beast is that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. It‘s admirable to have an open heart and making good choices.

I love this fairytale and readers will too! Great tale to talk about fantasy and what fairytales are made up of. Beautiful artwork throughout this story.

This book was published in 2016. This book is a classic story that everyone knows and most people love. The illustrations in this book are really good and precise to look at. This book is always a crowd pleaser.

I think a lot of children would be surprised to hear this versions of the story because it is so different from the classic disney fairytales

I find this book interesting because it is not the classic story of Beauty and the Beast like the movies. It is much sadder and darker. However, the illustrations and font depict the ultimate fairytale which I really enjoy.
