Document Summary
Once upon a time, a young prince lived in a shining castle. One cold night an old beggar woman arrived, offering him a single rose if he would let her take shelter from the cold. But because of her ugliness, he turned her away. To punish the prince, she turned him into a terribly ugly beast. Then she gave him a magic mirror and the rose, telling him it would bloom until his twenty-first year. To break the spell, he must love another and earn that person"s love before the last petal fell. In a small village nearby, a beautiful young woman named belle hurried through town. She greeted the people and then rushed to her favorite shop the bookstore. The owner gave her a book as a gift. Far-off places, daring sword fights, magic spells, a prince in disguise oh, thank you very much! belle rushed outside, reading as she walked.
