Ali Baba and Aladdin are similar folk tales that both involve a hidden cave of wonders accessed through a secret entrance. However, they differ in some key details. Aladdin has a magic carpet and genie who helps him become a prince, while the only magic in Ali Baba is money. The stories also take place in different locations in the Arabian desert and feature different supporting animal characters - a monkey versus a donkey. Overall, the writer found Aladdin to be a more enjoyable story than Ali Baba due to its greater depth and detail.
1. COMPARE AND CONTRAST
Andrew Werner
Ali Baba is an arabian folk tale that we read in our class, and alladen was an original
Disney movie we watched. These two tales are verry similar and we are comparing them
to clear up any differences.(also to learn more about comparing).
In alladen alladen has a pet monkey with him named abboo . Abboo helps alladen
get the treasure of wonders from the cave.Ali baba has a pet donkey that helps
him do the same.
In Ali baba, Ali has a hidden cave of wonders hidden behind a rock.So does alladen.
only inside a giant shrine of a tiger that talks. weird, but true, besides ive seen a lot
weirder from Disney. like Walt's decapitated head in a freezer.
In ali baba, allah (some sort of god) rules them. Also in alladen, alladen also has a line
where he thanks this strange arabian weird god like none-existent freak.They all love
Allah.
In the movie alladen, al sais hes from some where in the arabian desert, and in ali
baba, ali baba is in the country of persia, a small country some where also in the arabian
desert.
They also have differences. the following paragraphs will be about the similarities and
differences of ali baba and alladen.
Alladen has a genie who helps him become a prince. In ali baba, the only majic in there
is the majic of money. (GREEDY BROTHER!)
Ali Baba has no magic carpet in his story. alladen has one. there you have it!
I would like to say that they are very similar. But, they're not! I liked Alladen a lot
better. Alladen had way more detail, and was more of a story for me to get into. I think
that Ali Baba is just a cheap four page piece of garbge from a cheap school book from
cheap Michigan! (Listening to Green Day) Seriously though, Alladen was more
2. enjoyable.
In conclusion, the two items are similar, but have differences.They are both
stories, but only Alladen is half good. Ali Baba is not as in-depth. Seriously, peice
out home dawg!
