THE EMPEROR’S NEW CLOTHES
|
Everyone agrees that the emperor is charming, clever, and works very hard . . . at shopping! All he ever thinks about is his expensive clothes. So when a pair of swindlers comes to town, they know just how to make some easy money: they sell the emperor a magical suit that’s invisible to anyone who is lazy or stupid. The emperor doesn’t dare to admit he can’t see it! But will anyone be brave enough to tell him that he’s wearing nothing at all?
John Rowe’s art provides the perfect “new clothes” for Hans Christian Andersen’s famous tale, with illustrations as zany and colorful as any emperor’s wardrobe. |
