TALES FROM THE ARABIAN NIGHTS

One of our favourite children's book illustrators thoughtfully brings to life with humorous and very appealing colour illustrations on every page a wonderful array of best loved tales and adventures to share at bedtime or any time. The stories include The Voyages of Sindbad the Sailor, Aladdin and His Wonderful Lamp, The Enchanted Horse, Awake or Asleep?, True or False?, Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves and The Pot of Gold. These stories were first told to the Sultan of the Indies by the lovely Scheherazade who was brave and believed she could cure her new husband of his anger by telling him fabulous stories. For 1001 nights she recounted her tales each time leaving the Sultan wondering: 'What happened next?' A lavish collection of seven of the best-known tales, retold for younger readers ages four and up to enjoy. A beautiful fairytale treasury, 200 large pages, 19.5 x 26cm.
