THE EMPEROR'S NEW CLOTHES and THE SWINEHERD HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSON

Two classic morality tales which have been shared for way over a hundred years from Hans Christian Anderson. The Emperor's New Clothes: The ruler of a kingdom is duped by a pair of conmen pretending to be weavers who convince the emperor that only the ignorant, or those unfit for their jobs, fail to see the fine clothes they will make for the king. The word gets around and when the king dons the clothes, he and everyone else can see that he is standing in his underwear, but no one has the moral courage to tell the king that he is standing with very little on. All are afraid they will be thought ignorant or unfit to hold their jobs.
