Beauty and the Beast

A father’s promise.A daughter’s sacrifice.A curse that only love could break.Never has Beauty and the Beast been more lovingly retold and pictured. With amazingly fresh vision, Pat Cummings has created a vibrant fairy-tale world where the Beast’s richly ornamented palace draws inspiration from the cultural imagery of West Africa and the architecture of the Dogon of Mali. H. Chuku Lee lets Beauty tell her story simply, giving a powerful immediacy to a message that’s proven timeless. This stunning picture book is a treasure.
