Aladdin and His Wonderful Lamp in Rhyme
About this book
A mysterious lamp draws Aladdin from ordinary life into a world of wealth, danger and supernatural assistance. The familiar Arabian Nights adventure is retold in verse, with its magician, genie and threatened happiness given a rhythmic narrative form. The illustrated presentation makes this edition a literary adaptation for readers, rather than a literal translation of the full Nights collection.
