Set during the movie before Belle breaks the curse. When Belle finds herself homesick and missing her father, the gang decide to cheer her up by recreating her cherished charm bracelet.

Like most Disney books this is a charming little book. I adore charm bracelets so I loved that Belle owns one and that the gang set out to make it for her. Complimented by the gorgeous illustrations, the bracelet takes shape and Belle is presented with a thoughtful and sentimental gift. Promoting friendship, family and the benefits of working together, the book crafts a positive and wholesome narrative that readers will love.

My favourite part was the convenience of the Royal Jewelry Chamber.

“What are we waiting for?” asked the Beast. “We’ll find everything we need in the Royal Jewelry Chamber. Follow me!”
