I love fairy tales and all of their adaptations! It's great to jump into the nostalgia from my childhood, especially seeing new takes in graphic novel form.

This time around, Beauty has two sisters named Gritty and Petty (it reminds me of Cinderella - wicked sisters with awful names). The Beast is a scary, green creature. The story follows the classic fairy tale in a kid friendly way - so you most likely know the rest already.

I found this book to be very simplistic and easy to read. Kids and adults will enjoy it! The pictures are colourful and illustrate the story well, but I almost wish it was a little bit longer.

The inclusion of writing prompts, art project and discussion questions was very cute and makes it for a great educational tool.

Overall, this book is a sweet introduction to graphic novels and is a great adaptation of the classic fairy tale!

Three out of five stars.

Thank you to NetGalley, Capstone and Picture Window Books for providing me a free copy of this book in exchange of an honest review.
