Janean Guz: Beauty and the Beast is a tale told everywhere. So much so that its origins are just unknown. It has been traced to several countries, including: Germany, India, Japan, France, etc. It's everywhere so nearly every country has it's own respective version. Try searching for something like "beauty and the beast" and "country name." There are many more than what I've listed.
Jerrod Guilfoil: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beauty_and_the_Beast#...There are a ton of different variations of Beauty and the Beast (for television and music included).
Buster Buchko: Wow. I actually remember this from when I was a little kid.
