Love the movie, hate, hate, HATE the marketing. The moral, which could not be presented more clearly, is that true beauty comes from within. Belle, the heroine of the story, is an intelligent and sensible girl who's usually got her nose in a book. Throughout virtually the whole film she wears this practical blue dress:

Beauty and the Beast is one of my favorite fairy tales. This book is an abbreviated version of the movie and I thought it was done well. The entire story was captured in a short period of time with short pages and beautiful pictures to help children read the story and stay engaged. The story could be used for a fun read aloud, for a class library or for a variety of introductions to a lesson. One lesson that it could be used for is introducing titles or chapters.

This is a great magic folktale. There are always new surprising things going on in the story to keep children engaged. The pictures are great—as all Disney pictures are.

Beauty and the Beast is definitely considered a classic in my family. I remember the story from when I was younger and I love reading it to my daughter now.

My mom got me this book when I was a little girl. She also got me a Beauty and the Beast sleeping bag and tent. I loved Beauty and the Beast because Bell read books and I felt like she was much more interesting than the other disney girls.
I must say that I think Beauty and the Beast is one of the best Disney stories. I love how Belle is able to look beyond the physical appearance of the Beast.
no mr. romero this is isnt no cinderella this and the hutch back was some good disney books ill read it any time
These were not really all that great except that they followed the movies. Still something kids should have a few of.
