As the subtitle elucidates, this is a retelling of an old
fairy tale. Three sisters, two are
beautiful, Grace and Hope, the third sister, named Honour is clever. She says, “I rather be Beauty” and the name
sticks.
When their father comes upon a
magical place in the forest while traveling, he is forced to make promise to
send one of his daughters to the Beast’s castle. Beauty accepts the task, and thus begins her
own magical adventure of courage, understanding, and, ultimately, love.
Harper Collins, 1978 247 p.
