Book Reviews of Tales From The Arabian Nights: Ali Baba And The Forty Thieves And Other Stories (Junior Classics)
Book Review: Selected stories only?
Summary: 3 Stars
The most frustrating thing about this collection is that it contains only selected stories from the Arabian Nights, and while most of the time omissions are seamless enough (for example, all 7 of Sindbad's voyages are included) on a couple of jarring occasions events are referred to which are in stories not included, and worst of all there is no closure given to the framing device of Scheherazade's threat of execution. Despite these niggles, there are still some enjoyable fantasy tales here, and while the tales become a little repetitious with their repeated themes and motifs, there is enough here to keep the reader interested.
