From the elegant typography and silhouetted endpapers to the twelve color plates and the addition of myriad decorative elements — ornamental heads, initials, silhouettes, partial borders, and much more — this hardcover edition is a unique presentation and a design triumph. Ransome's charming verse rendering, combined with Mackenzie's superb achievement, brings the tale of Aladdin to life in a new idiom.
