Aladdin and the Magic Lamp

A newly illustrated edition with reader's notes for tricky words. Complete and unabridged.

A stranger calls Aladdin “nephew” and promises him a hidden treasure—but why does he need Aladdin to fetch it? For a boy who’d rather play in the streets than learn a trade, the answer will change everything.

Aladdin stands in a shadowy cave, reaching for a dusty lamp as a brass ring gleams on his finger. Beyond the city, a secret lies buried beneath the mountains—and the stranger who leads Aladdin there is no kindly uncle. Soon, a fearsome genie can summon feasts and riches with a word, and Aladdin’s heart is set on the Sultan’s beautiful daughter. But magic brings danger as well as wonder: a cunning enemy knows the lamp’s power and is determined to claim it. Can Aladdin protect the people he loves when the magic he depends on falls into the wrong hands?

This complete and unabridged edition includes reader’s notes for tricky words, inviting young readers into the classic tale of Aladdin and the Magic Lamp.
