This book is a new take on the "Beauty and the Beast" story. This time, the story is told from the beast's perspective. The "Beast" is a Persian prince, and he runs away to France after he is cursed. There, he meets "Beauty," a girl named Belle.... I like this book because I am Iranian and there aren't enough books with Iranian heroes/heroines. You should read this book to experience other cultures and get a new take on a classic tale.
