My favorite book when I was little was '1001 Arabin Nights'.  I read it
so many times the front and  back covers came off, but that was ok.  
Pretty soon the pages at the top and bottem started to fall off, but that
was ok too, as I had the stories pretty much memorized anyhow, so I just
made up for the missing pages myself.  But before long, the whole book
fell apart and I finally gave up reading it.  Ever since then, I have
been on the look out for another copy (in English, my first copy was in
Chinese).  My first copy was about 300-400 pages and was in fine print.
I have not seen another version which has the complete stories as I remembered.
Does anyone out there know if a complete version is still in print?  Where
can I find it?  How about the publisher and title?  If you know of different
versions for adults and children(ie, more illustrations) I would like to know 
both.  It's a wonderful gift for kids!  Send me mail or postnews and
thanks (this will be much appreciated).

ps. I did look for the Chinese version, but was not successful.  If you
    know of one, I would like to have the above information too.  Thanks.
