The Arabian Nights

A new colouring format designed for gifting, at an attractive price. These evocative Middle Eastern folk tales of romance, voyages and wonder are told by a young woman, Scheherazade, to save herself from execution at the hands of the Sultan. Opening with her story, this sumptuously illustrated frieze unfolds to feature the best-loved stories of The Arabian Nights on each of the ten panels. The concertina folds out to reveal these classic tales, showing off Meel's beautiful illustration to glorious effect on heavy art paper: Scheherazade and the Sultan, Sinbad the Sailor, The Three Apples, Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, The Merchant and the Genie, The Thief of Alexandria, The Ebony Horse, The Fisherman and the Genie, Aladdin and the Magic Lamp, and The Queen of Serpents.
