3. A long time ago, there lived an emperor. He loved
new clothes very much.
4. He liked to put on his
new clothes and parade
on the street.
5. One day, two swindlers, came to the country. They
pretendedto be tailors andwent to see the emperor.
Really? It sounds
interesting!
We can make the
most beautiful
clothes in the world.
Our clothes are very
special because only
clever people can
see them.
6. The emperor was interested in it. Then he asked them to
make clothes for him.
golden thread
OK. No
problem.
We need lots of
golden thread to
make the clothes.
7. A few days later, the emperor asked his minister to see
how the tailor was doing.
Go and see how
my new clothes are! Yes. Your Majesty!
8. When he arrived, he could see nothing. He thought, “Oh, my
goodness! I cannot see the new clothes. Am I stupid?” The
minister was afraid of losing his face. So he pretended he could
see it.
Sir, are the clothes
pretty?
Oh yes! They are
very beautiful.
9. Later, the emperor sent more ministers to the tailors. They
all said that the clothes were very beautiful.
They are really the
most special clothes
in the world.
They can see the
clothes.
Surely I can.
10. So the emperor went to the tailors. As he arrived, the
two tailors pretended to be were working hard. But actually
they were doing nothing.
11. The emperor looked carefully
but he could not see any new
clothes. He thought, “Oh no. I
can’t see anything. Am I stupid?
No, I can never let people know
the truth.”
???
12. Look! Your Majesty,
here are your new
clothes.
Aren’t they pretty?
Yes, of course! The
new clothes are very
pretty! I love them
very much!
13. The next day, the emperor put onhis ‘new clothes’ for the
parade on the street. When the people saw him, they were
shocked.
14. The people saw that he was naked and they laughed at
him. He was embarrassed and felt foolish. Finally, the
emperor realized that the tailors had tricked him!
Look! The emperor
isn’t wearing
anything!
Haha…
