Originally published in 1897, this Kindle edition, equivalent in length to a physical book of approximately 32 pages, is a retelling, from “Arabian Nights,” of the story of Aladdin, who finds an old lamp that, when rubbed, summons a genie who obeys his will.Sample passage:Aladdin, being suddenly enveloped in darkness, cried, and called out to his uncle that he was ready to give him the lamp, but his cries could not be heard. He then descended to the bottom of the steps to get into the palace, but the door, which had been opened by enchantment, was now shut by the same means. Aladdin was now in despair. He sat down on the steps without any hopes of ever seeing light again, and in expectation of a speedy death. In his great distress he said, “There is no strength or power but in God”; and in joining his hands to pray he rubbed the ring which the magician had put on his finger. Immediately an enormous genie appeared, and said, “What wouldst thou have? I am ready to obey thee. I serve him who possesses the ring; I, and the other slaves of the ring.”

An ageless and delightful adventure sure to be enjoyed by all.Recommended by The Gunston Trust for Nonviolence in Children's Literature. Ages 6-12

Play script. A very spectacular dramatization of Scheherazade's most wondrous tale. Three sets. Oriental costumes. Cast of 4 women, 3 men, 2 genies, extras. Suitable for an all-girl cast. This play is magnificent with the beauty and magic and mystery of the Arabian nights. Yet its characters lend it a delightful touch of comedy. The scenes are splendidly theatrical where the Slaves of the Lamp, in phosphorescent costumes, move with oriental rhythm to their magic deed. But equally satisfying are the playful gaming scenes between Aladdin and the Princess and the explosive scenes between Aladdin's sputtering mother and the Princess' choleric father.
