***FREE STORY***This multimedia retelling of 'The Ugly Duckling' has bonus material; an English translation of the original fairy tale published by Hans Christian Andersen on November, 11, 1843 to critical acclaim (chapters ten to thirteen) and a short autobiography of Andersen (chapter fourteen). Although Andersen wrote three autobiographies in his lifetime, when the critic Georg Brandes questioned him about the authoritative one, the poet claimed he had already written it, 'The Ugly Duckling' -'Hans Christian Andersen: The Story of His Life and Work 1805 - 1875'. Appearance sets 'The Ugly Duckling' apart from his peers. No longer able to take the ostracism and rejection, he sets on a journey to adulthood in this timeless tale of transformation.

PREVIOUSLY CALLED "BEAUTY'S MELODY" "Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that." ~Martin Luther King Jr. ~~~~~ In the beginning, there was a boy. A girl. And a beast. For years, legends rumor that there is a beast roaming in the Péige Forest near a northern village in the kingdom. It is merciless, ruthless, and undeniably dangerous to all those who come near. Hundreds of men have attempted to kill it only to never be heard of again. It has been a year since Mira's older brother has been gone after venturing off to kill the beast. And like all the others, everyone suspects he is dead and the pain comes right after when they find out that it is true. Determined to take revenge, her youngest sister goes off on her own into the Péige Forest to avenge her brother. Mira now has no choice but to save her siblings in a hunt that could very well end her life. But when she gets separated from her family for good, nothing seems certain anymore. Not even the strange, kind man, who never reveals his identity, she met along the way. He promises to help her find her siblings only with the condition that she would not come close to him. That one decision would change life forever, plunging her in a world of light and dark, hatred and love. ~~ A Beauty and the Beast Retelling Edited by flowergirl82 Cover by me Cover picture by Emily Soto (http://goo.gl/tYZhQP)

I'm thinking at this point it would make a wonderful bedtime story. It's so beautifully described! @thebeast86 This is so well written. I LOVE your writing style ❤❤❤ @AmandaUrie23 I love how in your version of beauty and the beast, you've given the beauty's sisters more character and made them more realistic as opposed to most accounts where the sisters are just bland and mean. I also like how you've given Belle a backstory. The best part in all of this is the historical accuracy, and the proper use of royal titles. It's my first time reading this and I'm so excited for what's to come! @MellifluousSkies This feels like a brand new story, as I am reading it, even though it is "a tale as old as time". Great story telling...I love the filling out you have done with such a classic tale, adding more background and feelings to really give the story a large presence. Brava! @random__thoughts I'm so glad that I found this! It's amazing and deserves way more attention! @mirabellaspencer I love love love ur book beauty and the beast.
