Every version of "Beauty and the Beast" is up for grabs, including the classic fairy tale, the Disney movie, the older myths from which the fairy tale stems . . . all of them! As long as the "Beauty and the Beast" theme is recognizable, the retelling can go in whatever direction best suits the story! Make sense?<br /><br />I'll look forward to seeing your take on the tale!Anne Elisabeth Stenglhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09462605949792523331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-85360029577420057812014-06-24T22:59:15.932-04:002014-06-24T22:59:15.932-04:00Totally cool cover!

That could affect how I'm going to write this thing...<br />Because they are REALLY different. <br /><br />Original: <br />Beast is a kind prince who was cursed because he refused to marry some witch. (who turns out to be some relation of his)<br />Belle is the unselfish daughter of a wealthy merchant, who has many other children. The others don't like Belle because she's not like them, and they continually beg him for the newest clothing, etc.<br /><br />Disney:<br />Beast is a selfish prince who turned away a "beggar" woman and is cursed until he learns to love, and is loved back in spite of his appearance. <br />Belle is the only attractive girl in town, loves books, and has a crazy buff dude (who loves to expectorate :) ) trying to get her to marry him. <br /><br />Which one are you looking for?<br />Thanks!Merenwen Inglorionnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-51125854718965531202014-06-02T12:48:07.198-04:002014-06-02T12:48:07.198-04:00Oh, this is just too thrilling for words!! :DOh, this is just too thrilling for words!! :DClarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05597065432344069069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-16319464168013660092014-06-02T11:06:50.035-04:002014-06-02T11:06:50.035-04:00Yay!
