"Beauty and the Beast" by Anonymous is a classic fairy tale that can be categorized as a children's story, likely penned during the late 17th to early 18th century. The tale explores themes of love, sacrifice, and transformation, centering around a young woman, known as Beauty, who finds herself in an enchanted castle with a Beast. The narrative delves into the importance of looking beyond appearances and understanding the deeper essence of characters and their circumstances. The story begins with Beauty's father encountering a Beast after picking a rose from his magical garden for her. To save her father, Beauty bravely agrees to live in the Beast's castle, where she discovers a world of wonder and underlying sadness. Over time, Beauty learns to see beyond the Beast’s terrifying exterior, uncovering his gentle nature and a tragic curse he bears. When given a chance to leave and return home to her family, Beauty grapples with her feelings for the Beast. Ultimately, her love and loyalty result in the Beast's transformation back into a handsome prince, as she embraces the true meaning of love. The tale concludes with their joyous union, conveying the moral that true beauty lies within. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
