If you remember the movie, Aladdin, you probably remember the song "A Whole New World." That song plays while Jasmin and Ali are sailing the world on the magic carpet. It's an amazing adventure and this story takes that adventure and fills in the blanks of what happened.
As they share this adventure, they explore the differences between being a "street rat" and a princess and they shine light on the what is and what could be.
