What is Holly and the rose garden about?
Holly arrives in a beautiful rose garden in the magical land of Enchantia, but her guide, the White Cat, has vanished. Nearby, a man picks a white rose while a frightening beast watches from the shadows. Holly soon realises that she has entered the ballet story of Beauty and the Beast—only this version is going terribly wrong. To restore the story and help Beauty and the Beast find happiness, Holly must solve the mystery and use her courage, kindness and dancing skills.
