BEAUTY AND THE BEAST

Once upon a time, there lived a merchant who had three daughters. The youngest daughter was most beautiful. Everyone called her Beauty. One day, the merchant was going to the market.

• "What do you want as a present?"

• "Please, buy me a new dress."

• "Please, buy me a pearl necklace"

• "I would like a rose".

The merchant had finished his business.

On his way back home, there was a sudden storm.

• "Oh, no! What a horrible storm! I can't see."

Then, he suddenly noticed a bright light, shining in the middle of the woods. It was a palace.

• "Hello! Is anybody home?" he shouted, but nobody came to greet him.

He went inside. On a table in the main hall, a dinner was ready.

• "Oh, I'm so hungry." He sat down at the table and ate the food.

• "I'm so tired".

• Tired, he soon fell asleep.

The next morning, he saw a beautiful garden and went out.

• "A beautiful rose!" he bent down to pick the rose.

Instantly, sprang a horrible beast.

• "Ungrateful man! I gave you shelter. But you ruined my garden!"

• "Forgive me! The rose was for my daughter, Beauty."

• "Then, bring your daughter Beauty."

Beauty came to the palace to save her father. In return for her life, the Beast released Beauty's father. The Beast was good to Beauty and took care of her.

• "You are so kind."

• "Thank you."

• "I like you."

Beauty and the Beast became good friends.

One day, the Beast presented Beauty with a magic mirror.

• "It's a present from the Beast. Look! There's a letter!"

• "Dear Beauty, this is a magic mirror. Look into it when you want to see your family."

When Beauty peeped into in, she could see her family, far away.

Beauty started at the mirror everyday. One day, she found her father was sick.

• "My father is very ill. Please, can I go and visit him?"

• "If you go, you will not come back."

• "I swear! I swear! I will come back in a week!"

• "If you do not return in a week, I may die!"

• "Beauty, my love, I feel better now."

• "That's wonderful!"

Relived to see Beauty again, her father felt much better. Beauty was happy. However, she did not notice that seven days had gone by.

• "Oh! I must go back to the Beast"

• "You're too late. I'm dying."

• No! Please don't die. I love you."
