What a lovely and poignant tale about a young boy who discovers "the beast" up in the French alps. The story begins with his grandfather and he rescuing a young lamb who's mother was shot by the locals. (Ignorant of killing a breeding female in the height of summer). The dog finally get a bath in the alpine streams and lo and behold! It a female! Belle! Well I stand tell you how this story unfolds, but taking place in 1943, Nazis and dangers lurk about. Of course the beast is really Belle, as she guards the boy Sebastian, well enough. This is originally a French story and movie, dubbed into English. And oh, Sebastian mother is from the other side of the alps in America. So sad....Pax and enjoy, Murf
