Once upon a time there lived an Emperor with a passion for fashion. In this bold, hilarious, and sumptuously illustrated book, Hans Christian Andersen's beloved fairy tale is given star treatment. The celebrity cast includes renowned actors and actresses, award-winning illustrators, and many other highly acclaimed personalities whose talents are outshined only by their generosity. This remarkable group of contributors has donated all of the royalties from this book to Starbright, an innovative charitable organization committed to improving the lives of seriously ill children. Their gift to the Starbright Foundation is a gift for every reader, a brilliantly reinvented classic that will delight children of all ages.

About the Author
Virginia Lee Burton (1909-1968) was the talented author and illustrator of some of the most enduring books ever written for children. The winner of the 1942 Caldecott Medal for THE LITTLE HOUSE, Burton's books include heroes and happy endings, lively illustrations, and a dash of nostalgia. She lived with her two sons, Aristides and Michael, and her husband George Demetrios, the sculptor, in a section of Gloucester, Massachusetts, called Folly Cove. Here she taught a class in design and from it emerged the Folly Cove designers, a group of internationally known professional artisans. She is the author of many classic children's picture books, including MIKE MULLIGAN AND HIS STEAM SHOVEL and KATY AND THE BIG SNOW.
