Synopsis

In this delightfully funny retelling of the classic story, the emperor hires two tailors to make him a new set of elegant and magical clothes - clothes that foolish people will think are invisible! When the emperor parades through town in his fine new clothes, while really just wearing polka-dotted shorts, only a child is willing to speak up and tell the truth.

About this title

About Little Pebbles: This charming series retells classic fairy tales with bright illustrations and a clever tone.

From the Inside Flap:

"I love clothes," cries the Emperor, and he's not kidding. He doesn't care a fig for anything or anybody else--he doesn't have to, he's the Emperor. What a spoiled pig! He's so vain and stuck-up that he's the perfect target for two sly swindlers, who weave him a suit of clothes no one will ever forget--especially not the Emperor!
