Books like Disney's Aladdin (Disney Classic Series)

Aladdin by Don Ferguson is placed under the genre Children Literature as a fantasy. It is intended for the audience ages three to six years. This story is about a poor boy named Aladdin and a Princess named Jasmine’s journey. Aladdin hoping to one day be rich so he’ll never have to steal again, and Jasmine hoping to one day marry for love. This story contains lots of magic and mystery. I rated Aladdin five stars because of the incredible use of language, imagery, characters, and the dramatic plot. This story is an enchanting journey with lots of magic altering the rise and fall of the plot. This book would appeal to young readers because of the use of magic and the characters - a princess and prince. Younger readers, especially girls enjoy stories with romance – Aladdin and Jasmine fall in love. Young readers, especially boys enjoy stories with action – Aladdin fighting evil magic, saving Jasmine and her father from evil Jafar. This fantasy encourages divergent thinking – encouraging young readers to enjoy the book while allowing them to compare the difference of what’s fantasy and what’s real. Aladdin keeps young readers engaged and on the edge of their seats. I absolutely loved this story as a child!
