Summary

Like everyone else in the kingdom, two clever swindlers understand the emperor's passion for new clothes. Claiming to be the creators of the richest and most beautiful cloth in the world, they cleverly announce that the magical garments they are weaving for the emperor are invisible to anyone lacking intelligence. Who will have the courage to speak the truth? Narrated by famed British actor Sir John Gielgud, this delightful retelling of Hans Christian Andersen's classic (adapted by Eric Metaxas) is made even more beguiling by an original musical score by Mark Isham. Ages six and up. Part of the award-winning Rabbit Ears series, Storybook Classics.
