Aladdin, Interesting Differences

There are three different things from Disney I want you to know about Aladdin. First of all, there are the characters. For example, Aladdin in this book is a lazy boy. He does not like work and he plays all day with his friends in the market. Jasmine in this book is named Badr-a-Budur. She is free, in other words, she can go anywhere freely. I like Aladdin's character, he is a pure and brave. He always believes in himself and isn't afraid of anything! Jasmine is also so beautiful and tough. She always longs for going out of her castle. She has her own opinions. I think this book does not have much fantasy and isn't for children, but this little difference may be interesting for some people. The second difference is their appearance. Aladdin looks old and untidy in this book. Disney's Aladdin is that although he is poor, he is so cute. Especially, I was shocked at Jinnee because he is NOT cute. He is just a monster in this book. If children saw this Jinnee, they may dislike him, I think. If you have a chance to see Aladdin, Jasmine and Jinnee, please be careful!!! Finally, there is the plot. You know, Aladdin doesn't have his mother and his house, but somehow, he has both in this book. In addition, he doesn't have one important thing- a monkey! This monkey is the best friend of Aladdin. Yet again, Jinnee is NOT funny. Although these differences may not be interesting to some people, I think the book itself is NOT interesting.

My Favorite Character In The COUNT of MONTE CRISTO

Dantes is an interesting man. First, he was respected by every one, because he had good skill in crewing and he had good personality. For example, he was young, but he was recommended to be the next captain when the ship's captain died. In addition he had a fiance. He had spent a perfect life so far. The second reason, he is interesting man is the he never gave up! It was difficult to continue having hope, but he had hope for fourteen years. When he was taken to prison, he escaped fourteen years later. I was surprised. If I encounter his situation, I will give up. He got a lot of knowledge when he was in the prison. And he made a good friend, but the friend died. He could escape from the person, by pretend into be his dead friend. I think he was very smart, and very lucky person. Lastly, he succeeded in his revenge. After he escaped the person, he got his revenge. He killed Telnan, because Telnan framed him in had robed his fiance, after he killed Telnan, he regained his fiance. I think he was cool. he revenged the people that framed him. I respect him very much and I want to be like him. Please read the book and you probably became like him too.

For Children

The book "Alice's Adventure in Wonderland' is a good book for children. First, this book helps children to extend their imaginations, because this book is far from reality. For example Alice becomes very big or very small. Sometimes, she becomes as big as a house, and the other time she becomes as small as a key. Other examples are Alice meets some strange characters and she uses hedgehogs and flamingoes to play croquet. Definitely if children read this book, I think they can extend their imaginations. Next, I think the book will be enjoyable for children because there are a lot of interesting scenes. My favorite scene is that her tears make a lake and in the lake she drown. Children will also enjoy curious Alice. Even if she is in a strange place or she meets a strange person, she is curious all the time. It may be interesting not to have to worry about the future. Finally, in the book the author teaches a healthy respect for taking medicine to children. At the time the book was published, taking medicine was in fashion. This is my opinion, but I think the fashion is related to becoming too big or small if she eats cake. Some people say this is not related, but I think this author wants to teach a lesson. This is why this book is good for children.

Aladdin

The book Aladdin and the Disney movie Aladdin have different stories. First in the book, the main character is Aladdin. He is a lazy boy because he doesn't like work and he plays all day with his friends in the market. He and his mother are very poor, and live in a small house. They are often hungry, but Aladdin never works, and never helps his mother. Second, the general plot is that one day a man named Abanazar arrives in the city and claims to be Aladdin's uncle. He tells Aladdin and his mother "that he is a rich man." He gives them gold, buys Aladdin a beautiful new coat, buys them a very good dinner and wants to help them. Aladdin is very happy and it was a wonderful day for him. But actualy Abanazar is not Aladdin's uncle. He is a magician from Morocco and wants to find an enchanted lamp. He knows the lamp is in a magician garden under the ground, near a city in Arabia. Only a poor boy from the city can get into the garden and find the lamp, and that boy's name is Aladdin. One day, Aladdin saw Princess Badr-al-Budur. She was beautiful, with big darkeyes, the most beautiful woman in Arabia! He falls in loves with her! Third, this story is a little boring because it change so quickly. I think that Disney's Aladdin is much more interesting than this story. Disney's Aladdin has dreams and fantasies, but this book is a realistic story, so I like Disney's story better. In the last scene, Aladdin and Badr-al-Budur killed Abanazar by a sword. I don't recommend this story to you.

Aladdin Is Funny!

There are three themes in the story Alladin. The first one, it is love because Aladdin falls in love with Princess Badr-al-Budur. She was the most beautiful woman in Arabia and has big dark eyes and he thought of various ways to try to get her to love him. For example, he asked his mother to give Badr-al-budur's father the gold plate with a lot of jewels, but his Vizier also want to marry her. He has more jewels than Aladdin, so her father decided that she would marry the Vizier. Aladdin also thought how to marry her, and he asked the Jinnee to bring her and he married her. But Abanazar who had pretended to be Aladdin's uncle tempted to take her away from Aladdin. Aladdin killed Abanazer to defend her in the end. I like this scene because Aladdin and Badr-al-Budur seem like the happiest couple in Arabia. The second theme is adventure. For example, Aladdin went down stairs under the ground to bring the lamp for Abanazar and Aladdin looked afraid. Abanazar deceived Badr-al-Budur into the belief that she can exchange an old lamp for a new lamp. This scene irritated me. Because she sold it despite Alladin cherished it. I thought "Don't sell it!" The other theme is fantasy. Jinnee grants his master everything. His existence is especially fantastic. Abanazar is a magician so the stone moves easily, when Aladdin put his hand on the ring and says his name. These are unbelievable! When I was reading this story, I was excited to think about what happens next. It is funny story and original not Disney so I recommend to you.
