Description

Ming Da is only nine years old when he becomes the emperor of China, and his three advisors take advantage of him by stealing his stores of rice, gold, and precious stones. But Ming Da has a plan. With the help of his tailors, he comes up with a clever idea to outsmart his devious advisors: He asks his tailors to make "magical" new clothes for him. Anyone who is honest, the young emperor explains, will see the clothes' true splendor, but anyone who is dishonest will see only burlap sacks. The emperor dons a burlap sack, and the ministers can't help but fall for his cunning trick.

y now, you have probably heard the old folktale about

the emperor s new clothes. Two sly tailors fool a

vain emperor into believing he is wearing magical

clothes, when in fact he is parading through town

China, and without any tricky tailors.

Here is the real story.
