FOLKTALES AND NURSERY RHYMES
Pullman, Philip, Reteller

Aladdin and the Enchanted Lamp

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Sophy Williams. Pullman adds his own original and often witty flourishes, through both language and story detail, to this retelling of Aladdin's adventures. The handsome paintings also contain many imaginative details, but oddly enough the locales in the illustrations don't always match Pullman's introduction, in which he sets the story in China. Still, this oversize volume is appealing, especially for reading aloud.
