"Princess Jasmine has always wanted more out of her life -- to travel beyond the palace walls, to get to know her people better ... to one day become sultana and lead Agrabah. Unfortunately, her overprotective father does not agree. And he keeps introducing her to foreign princes, including a strange -- if admittedly charming -- one named Ali. Prince Ali has a secret. He's not actually royalty from the far-off kingdom of ''Ababwa,'' as he's claimed to be. He's really Aladdin from the streets of Agrabah, who's stumbled upon an all-powerful genie and a magic carpet and used the first of three wishes to become a prince. Because he, too, longs for a different life. And when ''Prince Ali'' presents the magic carpet to Princess Jasmine, she agrees to embark on a journey with him ... and asks that he take her to his homeland, Ababwa. On an adventure in a fantastical kingdom, Aladdin and Jasmine get caught up in the magic therein. But soon sinister outside forces come into play, threatening to strand them there forever. Will they learn from legends past? Or will the alluring promise of a path to a new life get the best of them?"--Jacket flap.… (altro)

This is very much a book within the Disney realm. Everything works out for the best. Conflicts do arise but resolve much easier than they ever would. But, sometimes it's nice to read a book that idealizes how things could be. (Even though you know that isn't really true because real life is more complicated than that.)

The thing that took me most out of the story though was a lot of things that just felt like very modern ideas or ways of doing things. Maybe some of those things actually have been around and used by people for hundreds of years and we just think of them as more modern. So, maybe I need to update my reference for older time periods and how life was. Either way though, because of what I have learned and heard about earlier parts of history, some things did feel out of place in the novel.

Of course though, this is looking at the story through an adult's lens. I think most younger readers who love Aladdin will also love this book. ( )

Aladdin has met the woman of his dreams, Princess Jasmine, and in order to be worthy of asking her hand in marriage he has wished upon a genie to become a prince. Jasmine does not know what to make of this Prince Ali (Aladdin in disguise) that has paraded into town with a profusion of opulence. Aladdin sees his only opportunity to woo the woman who has captured his heart slip away. He convinces her to go for a magic carpet ride. What neither of them know is that this night will be full of an adventure that they will never forget.
Aisha Saeed has taken a story that everyone has heard and breathed new life into the story. An easy story to tell would have been what happened after they were married. Instead Saeed has chosen to take readers on the adventure of that magic carpet ride. Anything can happen...

This was a great book with a story that I have loved since my childhood with more twists and turns than the famous Disney movie. One great feature that the author added was having the book divided in chapters that goes from Aladdin’s perspective to Jasmine’s. We know Aladdin to be the misfit thief in the Disney classic while this book brings much more light upon his back story and what lead him to being the character than he was. This was the same as Jasmine’s character in the story was much more of a scholarly character giving young girls the ability to look up to a smart female role model. I would recommend this short novel to young adolescents as it has some more mature themes that might be harder for elementary students to understand. But even with this I still very much enjoyed this book and the different take of the fairy tale I fell in love with as a child.
