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 realise the kind heart and soul of the true Prince inside. Soft, warm, bright colours show Belle's optimistic view of the world in this full-colour manga-style graphic novel, which explores Belle's innermost thoughts as she learns that true beauty comes from within. Also available: Disney Beauty and the Beast: The Beast's Tale.
