How it begins
In an old town at the foot of the red cliffs there lived a kind-hearted woodcutter named Ali Baba. He lived with his wife Zeynep and Morgiana, the clever young helper of the house, in a little house with a flat earth roof. Every morning Ali Baba took his two donkeys, Karaca and Boz, and climbed up to the juniper wood above the town.
