Good Points/Bad Points: I absolute love Aladdin and I really enjoyed reading this story. I think it was really clever to show what it would have been like if Aladdin hadn't met the Genie first. It was interesting to read about other street rats other than Aladdin. It's a darker version of Aladdin too it's not a happy smiley version so we get to see the characters in a different light. I enjoyed everything in this book
