An adapted, easy-to-read edition of Aladdin and the Magic Lamp - with engaging illustrations throughout. When the time comes for Aladdin to become a tailor like his parents, he refuses to learn one end of a needle from the other. He would rather spend his time playing in the streets, which is where the mysterious Ja'far finds him. After a trip to a secret cave to find a magic lamp, Aladdin's life goes from rags to riches. But there are some things money (and wishes) can't buy - like the heart of a princess.
