About this listen

A story as old as time....

You've heard the tale of the Beauty and the Beast before, but not like this. The original French fairy tale written by Madame de Villeneuve relates the tale of a wealthy family plagued by misfortune and of a father who wished to give his beloved daughter, Beauty, the only gift she desired - a rose. But the rose Beauty's father decides to pick for her comes with a great price - a price exacted by the lord of the palace, a Beast of a man!

Childhood favorite

Beauty and the Beast was my favorite childhood book. When I learned recently the version I had known was not the original I had to correct that. This book is better than the popularized version. Reading quality is amazing. The simple storyline is one I can appreciate. Overall, I will recommend.

deceptive description

I got this book because the description said it was unabridged, but it is abridged. I own own a hard copy of the original book and there is quite a bit of the story that was left out in this audible book.
