This was a quick read, of stories within a story. I have never read The Arabian Nights, though have read the great Sesame Street classic, [b:Scheherryzade and the Arabian Nights with Book|1253140|Scheherryzade and the Arabian Nights with Book|Constance Allen|http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg|1241910]. The story is not quite so lighthearted without Grover.
Cameron Dokey has a great way of retelling a classic story in an abridged way that will appeal to younger readers. I would have loved to have this fairytale series when I was a middle-grade reader. Even as an adult, I really do love a happy ending!!
