Beast by Donna Jo Napoli

Beast by Donna Jo Napoli

Elaborates on the tale of "Beauty and the Beast," told from the point of view of the beast and set in Persia. I like this book because of the folk tale connection. It brings the flat characters from the story to life! Instead of taking place in France, this one is set in the middle east. Of course the rose connection is in the story, but the Beast is actually explained more clearly.
