Have you read A Whole New World: A Twisted Tale? What did you think? Share your thoughts in the comments. It includes your favorite characters, love, passion, friendship and of course a happily ever after ending. Overall, if you are a Disney fan and like to read I would recommend giving this book a try. There was also a lot more violence and death than the original story that parents might want to be aware of for young readers. The only downfalls I felt was there was a lot of magic reference and spells and abilities that I felt might be confusing to some readers. I liked the new and even more determined princess. I enjoyed meeting more of the street rats and learning their stories. I thought the overall changes were well done. As a loyal and true Disney fan, I was worried about if I would like the drastically changed story. At the beginning, I thought it was rather slow as it was really similar to the movie and I wasn’t excited about reading the plot of the movie however, that quickly changed.
If I had to rate this book, I would give it a 4 out of 5. I won’t give anymore details away so you can discover them on your own but be prepared for twists, turns and a different happily ever after than you are used to. Jafar is able to get the lamp and Aladdin, Abu and Carpet are left in the cave.įrom here on out the story is very different than the one Disney fans are used to. Aladdin and Abu enter the cave and meet Carpet but when Abu touches the gem and the cave starts to shut, the story takes a different turn. He is arrested and taken prisoner by Jafar who entices Aladdin to join him to the Cave of Wonders. The two of them share their dreams and frustrations.
Aladdin saves Jasmine from getting her hand cut off in the market. The next few chapters of the story follow the movie fairly close.
It quickly fast forwards to where the movie starts with Aladdin more grown up with Abu as his only friend now as his mother has passed and his friends have gone down a different road. Braswell brings Agrabah to life on the pages as she describes the details of the city, the people and the separation between the different levels in society. You get to meet his mother, some new friends and learn a little about his past.
In this young adult book, our well know story of Aladdin has been taken and adjusted based on one question? What if Jafar was the one to summon the Genie?Īs a reader you are taken into the world of Agrabah where young Aladdin is living as a street rat. In these stories our favorite Disney characters come to life once again but this time with a few new twists and turns and even a different happily ever after.Ī Whole New World is the first of Braswell’s stories. Recently I discovered the twisted tales stories by Liz Braswell.
