The good folks at Godine have brought back this hilarious Arabian Nights fantasia, originally published in 1936 and reworked several times by Noel Langley (who also adapted the book for a 1958 episode of the Shirley Temple Storybook). One of the screenwriters for The Wizard of Oz, Langley brings wit and a winning way with words to this beloved tale.  (ARB99, $11.95)
