SynopsisKing Shahryar kills a new wife every night, because he is afraid she will stop loving him. But his new bride Shahrazad has a clever plan to save herself. Her nightly stories--of Sinbad the Sailor, Ali Baba, and many other heroes and villains--are so engrossing that King Shahryar has topostpone her execution again and again... This illustrated edition brings together all the Arabian Nights tales in an original retelling by award-winning author Geraldine McCaughrean.(paperback reissue of ISBN 0-19-274500-X), A completely new version of the Arabian Nights by Carnegie Award winning author, Geraldine McCaughrean. Written in a style that is clear, gripping and poetic, Schahrazad's attemps to stave off execution by telling just one more story retain the flavor of a magic, jinni-ridden, desert world.
