Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. Tom Pohrt (illustrator). And the three tales are: "Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves", "Abu Keer and Abu Seer" and "Aladdin and the Magic Lamp", smoothly re-told by Stephen Mitchell. Poet, translator, anthologist, zen practitioner, and all-round scholar - especially when it comes to Eastern and ancient philosophical and spiritual works - Mitchell's interpretations of Tao Te Ching, Bhagavad Gita and Gilgamesh are much respected, and his few children's books, like this one, are approachable for their young audience but no less literate. Many charming pen and ink drawings, several being full page, illustrate this worthy work. A fine copy in the lovely fine dust jacket. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 000292
