I love the classic (disney) Beauty and the Beast tale (I even have a "Tale as old as time" tattoo) but I did not enjoy this version as much as I'd hoped I would. The language is antiquated and I don't think children would enjoy it but this book could have been written for an older audience. The illustrations are also odd using watercolor paintings with clumsy outlines that combine to make generally unappealing pictures. I didn't like the illustrations, but I found the book interesting. The story centers around a widowed merchant and his three daughters. When the merchant lost his fortune, they had to move and work. When the merchant received a letter that he had merchandise, his elder daughters begged him to bring them back dresses and jewels. But Beauty, his youngest daughter, wanted a rose. After paying off his debt, the merchant couldn't afford to buy his daughters anything and on his way home he lodged in a palace to hide from the storm. Yet, it was on his way home that he decided to pick a rose for Beauty when he came across the beast. The story does well to present loving someone based on their inner qualities, such as friendship and trust, rather than their outer appearance. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

The style of the story reveals a completely new stay of Beauty and the Beast where Beauty could be seen as the villain. Although, she is described kind, the story the author tells reveals a shallow Beauty who will not marry someone who is kind because of their ugly appearance. The story is also written in a very formal matter. ( )
