THE EMPEROR'S NEW CLOTHES

BACKGROUND:

The story was written by the Danish Storyteller HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN, and is based on a 14th century Spanish tale known as El Conde Lucanor. There are other versions of  this story plot, including one from India. It tells of an Emperor who is tricked by two swindlers. A swindler is someone who uses dishonest methods to get money or possessions from someone else).  The version you will  see on this blog was retold by Grandma Susan.
