Description
The Orphan's Wish by Melanie Dickerson is a reimagining of the beloved folktale Aladdin, set in medieval Germany. A young orphan named Aladdin travels from his Arab homeland to a strange and unfamiliar place, where he meets Lady Kirstyn, the daughter of a powerful duke.
Despite their different stations in life, Aladdin and Kirstyn form a strong bond that grows into a lifelong friendship. As they navigate the challenges of growing up, Aladdin works hard to earn a position serving as the duke's steward, but he must also confront the shame of his past and the fear of losing everything he has worked for.
When Lady Kirstyn becomes embroiled in a terrible plot, Aladdin and Kirstyn must rely on their bond to save her. Will saving Kirstyn come at a cost to Aladdin's newfound status and all he has achieved? This enchanting new version of the well-known tale tells a story of courage, loyalty, friendship, and love.
