Book Review 2

Title: Aladdin and the Enchanted Lamp
Author: Judith Dean

Summary: Aladdin was a lazy boy. He did not like to work and he played all day with his friends in the market. He and his mother were very poor and were often hungry but Aladdin never worked and never helped his mother.
One day, Aladdin’s uncle, Abanazar, arrived in the city. He told Aladdin and his mother that he was a rich man. He gave them gold , bought Aladdin a beautiful new coat and wanted to help them.
However, Abanazar was not Aladdin’s uncle. He was a magician from Morocco and he wanted to find an enchanted lamp. He knew the lamp was in a magical garden under the ground near a city in Arabia. Only the poor boy, Aladdin, from the city could get into the garden and found the lamp. So Abanazar wanted Aladdin to find the enchanted lamp for him but Aladdin refused and in the end, Abanazar did not get the enchanted lamp.

Review: I like fairytales and magic a lot. So, when I read this book, I was filled with excitement and amazement. I envy Aladdin because he had a enchanted lamp and the magical spirit in the enchanted lamp can fulfill Aladdin wishes and I wish I could have one. The story is also adventurous. Hence, I like this story.
