christygsp's review against another edition
3.5
A twist on Aladdin and Joseph from the bible.
What would have happened if Aladdin had been taken from those Arabian nights and deposited into a European place? This book is a potential answer.
Almost nothing the same as the actual Aladdin story, except his name and Abu’s name (though not a cute and mischievous monkey, but a little boy instead in this story).
I liked it. Christian themes were nice throughout. Not what I expected when I hear the words “Aladdin retelling” though.

So good! I love this series!
