Customer Reviews

If you like made-up adventures, read this book.

When David Bernstein decides to change his name to Ali Baba, weird and unusual things start to happen! He finds a robber's treasure in his apartment's basement, and much more! I say this book is wonderful, but sort of disappointing when Ali Baba finds out about the treasure. I think the point of this book is: Having a good imagination gives you adventures, not your name.

If you like imaginary adventures, read this book.

David changed his name to Ali Baba. He thought that an exciting name would give him exciting adventures. So he got into big trouble. I liked this story because Ali Baba has a big imagination. I learned that if you have an exciting name you still won't have an exciting life.
