When he hears of two tailors who have created a magical cloth woven from the finest silks, he has to have an outfit made from it. They tell him that the cloth is so magical that it will appear invisible to stupid people. When the outfit is finished, no-one in the Court dares to tell the Emperor they can't see the cloth. As the Emperor parades proudly through the city, in his fine new clothes, a small child, who has not heard about the magical cloth, shouts out that the Emperor has nothing on... | |||||
