What is No Lie, I Acted Like a Beast! The Story of Beauty and the Beast As Told by the Beast about?

The Beast insists he was never truly a monster. Once a prince who longed to perform on stage, he found himself cursed and trapped in a frightening new form. When Beauty arrives at his castle, the Beast tries to prove that there is more to him than sharp claws and a fearsome roar. Told in the Beast’s own dramatic voice, this playful retelling of Beauty and the Beast turns the familiar fairy tale upside down.
