From School Library Journal
Kindergarten-Grade 2-An obscure Arabian tale. The theft of a damask bag precipitates a court battle in which Ali, the vendor, outsmarts the sly-talking thief. The boasting, almost tall-tale aspect of the story is common to its culture, as is the clever, turnabout ending. The language is smooth, with a slightly formal cadence, and reads aloud well. The bright watercolors are placed on sand-colored, marbled pages and framed by traditional Arabic arches and patterns. An enjoyable story that should have even greater appeal thanks to Disney's Aladdin.
