This book-within-a-book reads a lot like a Disney movie feels, with its descriptive fantasy world patterned in colorful prose. Lost in a Book lets fans of the Beauty and the Beastmovies delve further into Belle's magical world. Well-crafted and enchanting, this Disney confection offers a fascinating escape with some spooky twists. Belle does stand up for herself, but her circumstances really don't lend her much support, safety, or freedom.
The Beast's tantrums, in which he breaks things, threatens to hurt people, and abandons Belle or traps her, are frightening. Elements of Death's plot are creepy and graphic, such as zombie marionettes who try to trap Belle. Death conjures a living book, utterly entrancing Belle, luring her closer to her own demise. It's a gothic tale in which Belle is caught in a scheme devised by a character named Death, who places a deadly bet with her sister, Love, that Belle will abandon the Beast. Parents need to know that Jennifer Donnelly's well-written fantasy novel Beauty and the Beast: Lost in a Book plays off Disney's 2017 live-action Beauty and the Beast movie.
