Description

Discover tales of heroes who defied incredible odds, featuring a story of Ali Baba (an Arabian tale) and of Sunjata (a West African legend). In a beloved story from Arabian Nights, the humble Ali Baba discovers a secret cave full of priceless treasure. The problem? Forty bandits have hidden it there. When Ali Baba takes some riches for his family, the secret soon gets out. And Ali Baba will have to outfight or outwit a legion of thieves. Sunjata, warrior king of Mali, leader of West African legend, begins life unable to pull a bow—unable to even walk. But a prophesy tells of his becoming the mansa of the Mande people—the greatest king ever to rule. As a rival army and sinister sorcerer move to challenge him, will Sunjata be able to claim his destiny? Two-in-one editions featuring enduring myths and legends from a variety of cultures, retold in action-packed graphic-novel style.
