A cruel king marries beautiful young
women, but always has their heads cut off in the morning.
However, his new wife, Sheherezade, is clever. Every
night, she starts to tell him a wonderful story.
She tells him about a greedy man who finds a robbers'
cave, full of treasure, but cannot remember the magic
words to get out again. She tells him the story of Sinbad
the sailor, of a genie in a bottle, of Aladdin and his
magic lamp, and many more.
Every morning, the King lets his new wife live, because
he wants to hear the end of the story. Now you can read
some of Sheherezade's wonderful stories - and find out
what happens to the storyteller herself!
