Agrabah lives in fear, waiting for his third and final wish.To stop the power-mad ruler, Aladdin and the deposed princess Jasmine must unite the people of Agrabah in rebellion. But soon their fight for freedom threatens to tear the kingdom apart in a costly civil war.

Jasmine is sick of being stuck in her palace. She wants adventure. She wants something new. Aladdin is just like all the other street rats; hungry, desperate, and crafty. So when he sees a princess in disguise walking through the market exposed to hundreds of thieves, Aladdin swoops down to save to day. The two bond and realize that while they both live a different life, they crave the same thing: difference. Unfortunately, their time is broken and Jasmine is rushed back to the palace and in deep trouble for escaping. Jasmine's father, the sultan, is a bit oblivious man who relies on who he things is trustworthy, but is actually a crafty man: Jafar. Before Jasmine and the sultan know it, they are both in deep trouble. Jafar has outsmarted every option of escape and he holds his most powerful thing: a genie lamp. Pushing the sultan to his death, Jafar quickly settles on ruling the kingdom and the townsfolk. But the one thing that cannot be ruled: Jasmine's heart. Escaping the palace and Jafar, Jasmine finds Aladdin and quickly forms a plan with him and some other street rats. What at first was a little fight with Jafar, is now becoming a rebellion Jasmine and Aladdin are creating. Can they overthrow Jafar and conquer back the kingdom to steady hands? Happy reading!
