Aladdin's mother was even more surprised than he had been at the strangers story. But she, too, was eager to believe that such a rich man was her husbands brother. He bought them sweetmeats and fine clothes and promised to return on the following day.
 When he came back the next morning he asked Aladdin to take a walk with him. He led him to lonely valley shut in on all sides by high hills. Now you have prob- ably guessed that this stranger was not Aladdin's uncle at all. He was, in truth, a magician who had need of a stout lad to help him in an adventure he was about to un- dertake.
