Price Abu Ali, son of Aladdin, is sent on a mission to track down the mythical Land of Green Ginger and reverse a spell that has turned the court magician into a Button Nosed Tortoise . . . The author's wicked imagination and wit make the vainglorious heroes and villains Abu Ali meets along the way absolutely unforgettable, and the plot - engagingly told through a third-party narrator - lends itself to excellent real-aloud sessions for all the family to enjoy.
