We have a copy of Walt Disney’s “Lady and the Tramp” in book form and the boys love it. We also have a book of Disney’s “Beauty and the Beast” and this is also much loved. I’m not sure where they came from but they are among the boys’ favourite books despite our constant attempts to plug works we prefer.
The boys, have, however, totally confused the two works. As a special treat we got out “Beauty and the Beast” on DVD and they were transfixed. At first sight of the beast, they were both terrified and sat there pointing at the screen saying “Ladybeast, Ladybeast!”
Yes, we also have a healthy supply of Disney ’round here. Despite the fact that we try to push “better” reading and entertainment, the boys prefer the over-commercialized stuff.
Both myself and Mr LondonMom had a good laugh over that!
I love the Ladybeast. He’s so camp, let’s face it.
In French, “la Belle et le Clochard” et “La belle et la Bête”.
