Yes, it is perfectly proper to begin a sentence with And.
And you can also begin a sentence with But, and even However. There are no rigid rules which prevent us from writing in any way we might consider to be effective. The general rule is, if it looks and sounds good, it usually is.
You might hear of rules forbidding the beginning or ending of a sentence with certain words. A few speakers of English are still convinced that these rules not only exist but are set in stone, thanks possibly to schoolteachers who were themselves taught by those who knew no better. Many of these rules don't exist, and never did. And some might say that's an ungrammatical sentence, but that's a matter of opinion.
Most English speakers are by now aware that the language in common usage isn't nearly as complex as some would have us believe. We still have a few pedants who'd complicate life for us, but at the end of the day the people who speak the language have the final word: it's up to us, you and me, to decide popularly how we wish to speak, and nobody can take this right away from us.
With respect to 'And', here's a frequently quoted comment on the subject by Bill Bryson in his book, 'A Dictionary of Troublesome Words': 'The belief that 'and' should not be used to begin a sentence is without foundation. And that's all there is to it.'
There has been a great deal more material published on the subject. But I think Bryson says it all.
