review:
'Beauty and the Beast' adapted by Jessica Gunderson with illustrations by Thais Damiao is a graphic novel for young readers, including an introduction to how to read a graphic novel.

In this version of the story, Beauty has two sisters named Gritty and Petty. While Beauty likes books, Gritty is in to fashion and jewels and Petty is vain. When Beauty's father tries to bring a flower for her from what he thinks is an abandoned castle, he has to strike a bargain to save his life. His faithful daughter steps in to save her father's life, but what is she getting herself in to?

I liked this adaptation of the story. At first, the addition of the sister's felt odd, but they only serve to give more information about Beauty's character. The art is a really nice style. I think young readers would enjoy this introductory graphic novel.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Capstone and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
