An enchanting clothbound edition of the essential tales drawn from the acclaimed translation of The Arabian Nights

Every night for three years the vengeful King Shahriyar sleeps with a different virgin, executing her next morning. To end this brutal pattern and to save her own life, the vizier's daughter, Shahrazad, begins to tell the king tales of adventure, love, riches and wonder - tales of mystical lands peopled with princes and hunchbacks, the Angel of Death and magical spirits, tales of the voyages of Sindbad, of Ali Baba's outwitting a band of forty thieves and of jinnis trapped in rings and in lamps. The sequence of stories will last 1,001 nights . . .

About the author

Hayden Ahlbrandt, LPC, is a synergetic play therapist supervisor and dad of three who helps kids and adults make sense of emotions and behaviors. He believes that when we understand what’s happening, both for our kids and ourselves, it helps us respond more intentionally with connection, compassion, and playfulness. When he’s not talking about emotions, Hayden is spending time with his wife, chasing after his kids, playing beach volleyball, and exploring the world with his family.
