Lacking her sisters' awe-inspiring beauty, Belle withdraws from society, devoting her time to wood carving. Secretly Belle longs to find the fabled Heartwood Tree which, if carved by the right hands, will reveal the face of one's true love. During a fierce storm, Belle's father stumbles upon the mysterious Heartwood and encounters a terrifying and lonely beast. Now Belle must carve the Heartwood to save her father, and learn to see not with the eyes of her mind, but with the eyes of her heart.

Awesome submitted by Morgsush on July 16, 2011, 2:18pm Awesome book!

Beauty and the Beast retold submitted by SolaireFQ on July 17, 2016, 11:19am This retelling of Beauty and the Beast took a different spin, giving Belle a stronger personality and developing her family better. Overall I liked this book but it's not my favorite Cameron Dokey or Beauty and the Beast retelling.
