Storybooks

There are a lot of Disney's Aladdin storybooks out there, and the quality can vary wildly, so on this page I'm linking only to those books that I personally have read and would recommend to others. If you know of a good Aladdin book that's not here, please let me know; I'm always looking for new books!

Tales from Agrabah: Seven Original Stories of Aladdin and Jasmine

Tales from Agrabah: Seven Original Stories of Aladdin and Jasmine by Katherine Applegate, 96 pages

Description: "This richly illustrated collection of stories takes readers back in time to a different Agrabah, before Aladdin and Jasmine ever met. Included are tales of how Jasmine receives her pet tiger Rajah, why Abu leaves his life of luxury to live on the streets of Agrabah, and the magical night that the street urchin and the princess meet under the night sky."

Considered by many fans (me included) to be the best original Aladdin storybook written so far.

One True Love

One True Love by Annie Auerbach, 24 pages

Description: "Jasmine retells the tale of how she and Aladdin fell in love, proving everyone enjoys a love story—even the Genie!"

Mostly about Jasmine and her suitors before she meets Aladdin. It's a short book and aimed at younger readers, but the illustrations are beautiful and it's a really cute story.

My Best Friend is Jasmine

My Best Friend is Jasmine by Lisa Ann Marsoli, 32 pages

Description: "Jenna and her younger brother and sister are hungry and living on the streets in Agrabah—that is, until Jenna becomes best friends with Princess Jasmine! Find out how this streetwise little girl gets invited to live in a princess’s palace in this full-color padded and glittered hardcover storybook."

    Description: "High in the palace is a tower room where no one ever goes. In that room there is evil at work. Accidentally, Aladdin interferes with a curse cast there by Jafar — before Jafar was cast out of the palace for good. Now Jasmine is in great danger, and Aladdin is up against the dark magic of a power-mad sorceress! Can he untangle the mess he's made and rescue Jasmine — without Genie's help?"

Aladdin, Jasmine, and the Magic Carpet follow Khan's smoky green trail to an invisible desert oasis, where the giant green genie makes Abu his slave. Can Aladdin save Abu and set a trap for Khan the All-Powerful—before he destroys Agrabah?"
     
  • Jasmine and the Disappearing Tiger by Leslie McGuire, 60 pages
    Description: "Ever heard of Omar and the Four Dates? Aladdin wishes he never had. Omar is a magician who's been invited to perform at the palace. Using magic spells, he makes elephants and dancing ropes appear. That's fun! He also makes Rajah disappear. That spells trouble! To find the disappearing tiger, Aladdin must first rescue Omar from a creepy sheik who's holding him captive. And that's double trouble!"
     
  • A-Mazing Aladdin by Alex Simmons, 60 pages
    Description: "Ben Baba Abad is back! After 100 years of peace, the sorcerer has returned to Agrabah to spread his evil. There's chaos in the marketplace. The palace guards are acting strangely, and the Genie is imprisoned in Abad's underground temple of evil. To rescue the Genie and save Agrabah, Aladdin and Jasmine must master the terrible maze that surrounds the temple, and the dangers lurking within. And if they make it... they still have to face Ben Baba Abad!"
     
  • The Magic Carpet's Secret by Joanne Barkan, 60 pages
    Description: "Many, many years before Aladdin became the prince of Agrabah, a mysterious sorcerer named Khuriya wove 100 magic carpets, then scattered them throughout the desert.

The very last carpet has just been stolen... and this one is Aladdin's friend."

  2. Birds of a Feather, 60 pages
    Description: "Aladdin is having a bad day. The Sultan is sick, and Aladdin has to take over his duties—dealing with paperwork, overseeing the palace staff, even judging a dog show!

    Description: "Iago has promised not to say an unkind word about anyone for two days. He'll be rewarded with a brand-new super-deluxe birdbath if he makes it. The trouble is he's overheard the newest members of the palace staff making suspicious plans for the upcoming Ceremony of Fireworks. Iago doesn't want to risk losing his prize, but if he doesn't say something soon, he's afraid the Ceremony might be more explosive than anyone bargained for."
