Ali Baba and the forty Thieves

…””Open, Sesame!” cried their leader and a hole appeared in the rock….”

 

Long ago in Persia, there lived two brothers. Kasim was a rich merchant, but Ali Baba was a poor woodcutter. One day. Ali Baba saw the men stopped at a cliff, “open sesame” cried the hole appeared in the rock. After they rode away, he tried to the magic word. He got a lot of gold in the rock. He knew they are thieves. Kasim went there, but he founded by thieves and killed them. Thieves found Ali Baba’s house, but thanks to Kasim’s loyal servant Morgiana, all thieves died and Ali Baba gets happy.

When I was a preschooler, I was reading this story well. Then I only thought Ali Baba is a lucky man. However, I think not only Kasim, but also Ali Baba do bat thing that stole treasure, why Ali Baba became happy?  I think it is unfair. Compared with childfood, my opinion has changed.
