Disney Manga: Beauty and the Beast - The Beast's Tale (Full-Color Edition)
Age range 8 & up
In Disney’s live-action film “Beauty and the Beast,” Belle, a bright, beautiful, and independent young woman, is taken prisoner by a beast in his castle. Despite her fears, she befriends the castle’s enchanted staff and learns to look beyond the Beast’s hideous exterior and realize the kind heart and soul of the true Prince inside. Dark, cool, muted colours show the Beast's pessimistic view of the world in this full-colour manga-style graphic novel, which explores the Beast's struggle as he tries to move on from his past and learn what it is to love.
