A poor old fisherman casts his net four times a day and no more. The first three casts bring up nothing worth keeping. The fourth brings up a heavy brass bottle sealed with lead. When he opens it, out rises a smoke, and out of the smoke a towering genie who has decided to kill him. This is a tale from The Arabian Nights, in the version retold by Kate Douglas Wiggin and Nora Archibald Smith, read by Liz Leafloor. Thirty-nine minutes of wit against raw power, good for a family listen.
