Remember Aladdin's genie? Where do you think he learnt his all-powerful magic? That's right, he was a student at the famous Magic Lamp Academy in Baghdad.
Imagine you have been accepted into the Magic Lamp Academy. Your first class is How to Live inside a Lamp. The next is How to Grant Three Wishes. After lunch, you'll learn how to soar through the air on a flying carpet. Sounds like fun, doesn't it – but what happens when those lessons go horribly wrong?
Get ready for a magical adventure!
