Beauty and the Beast

Bibliographic Information: Brett, J. (1989). Beauty and the beast. New York, New York: Houghton Mifflin Company.

Annotation: This is Jan Brett's adaptation of the classic story of Beauty and the Beast.

Genre: Fairytale

Grade Level: K-3

Readers Who Will Like This Book: Anyone who enjoys the tale of Beauty and the Beast or stories with happy endings.

Personal Response and Rating: I rate this book a 3. Jan Brett's illustrations are beautifully detailed. I liked this version because the beast is extremely hospitable until the father takes a rose from the garden instead of being completely cruel from the beginning.

Prereading Question: Do you think if something is beautiful it is good?
