Following their big announcement on January 26, MinaLima released a “lavishly illustrated” edition of The Beauty and the Beast. This release could not be more well-timed, as it provides just enough time to brush up on the source material before the release of Disney’s live-action film starring Emma Watson as Belle, which comes to theaters March 17.
MinaLima’s description of the book states:
“The Beauty and the Beast is packed with specially commissioned, full-color artwork and nine exclusive interactive features, including:
– a fold-out map of the rich French city where the Merchant (Beauty’s father) and his family reside;
– a fold out that reveals the interior of the Beast’s enchanted palace;
– a series of flaps (similar to an Advent calendar) that open to reveal different entertainments; available to Beauty in the Beast’s palace;
– a dial of the ring Beauty turns on her finger to return to the Beast.”
The beautiful volume is available through several online sellers, and can be ordered on Amazon here.

Disney and Potter fans alike are able to enjoy the creativity of MinaLima (and purchase stationary and prints to adorn their homes) in The House of MinaLima in London, which is to remain open for the foreseeable future. Signed copies of The Beauty and the Beast will be released on March 9, and are available now for preorder here!
