Aladdin and His Magic Lamp: One Thousand and One Nights (Paperback)

'I am not thinking of learning any profession whatsoever.' Though Aladdin's childhood had been full of beauty, comfort and happiness, without any trace of sadness or sorrow, he entirely failed to learn the lessons of hard work and responsibility. And so it seems Aladdin will never achieve anything - until after his father's death a man arrives who claims to be his long-lost uncle, promising Aladdin and his mother wealth and status if only Aladdin will help him on a perilous quest involving a magic ring, a cave, and a very dusty old lamp.
