Her passionate and legendary storytelling includes some of the best-loved adventures of Ali Baba and Sinbad along with lesser-known gems from the thousand and one nights. Filled with tales of adventure and magic, wisdom and courage, intrigue and treachery, and accompanied by colourful, enticing artwork, this enthralling and beautiful collection of stories is certain to captivate any child. Christopher Corr's stunning, vibrant illustrations are bold and evocative--his folkish, naive style and strong palette complement the energy and tone of Fiona Waters' accomplished retelling.
