Beauty and the Beast (Group D)

Good morning Teacher, fellow students, ladies and gentlemen. I’d like to tell you a
story, entitled, “Beauty and the Beast”.

Once upon a time, a man wandered into a castle.

“How dare you?” roared a Beast. “I’ll kill you!”

“Please forgive me. I have a daughter at home that needs me...” he begged.

The Beast said, “I’ll let you go if you’d send me your daughter.” The traveler agreed
fearfully.

So Beauty went to the castle, and when she saw the Beast, she fainted right away.

The Beast did not hurt her. The Beast took good care of her. After a while, they
actually fell in love with each other.

Six months passed, Beauty received news that her father was very sick. She
wanted to see her father.

The Beast gave her a ring. “Put it on and you’ll be back here.”

Beauty promised the Beast that she would return in a week.

A week passed, her father began to get well but Beauty broke her promise.

One night, she had a dream. She saw the Beast lying on the ground.

She slipped on the magic ring. She found herself back in the castle.

“My dear Beast!” she cried, “Please don’t die… I love you with all my heart.”
All of a sudden the Beast turned into a handsome young prince.

“Who are you?” asked Beauty.

“I’m your Beast,” said the Prince. ”A wicked witch cast an evil spell over me until a
beautiful girl loved me.”

Beauty married the prince and they lived happily ever after.

Thank you.
