I really enjoyed this book as I found it funny. The long words were a good challenge.

It's really fun because everyone is so stupid they don't know Slimus and Slick are con artists

This book is very funny. It is about an Emperor who loved clothes but could't find any for a royal event. Then, two people tricked him and said they made invisible clothes and made him go naked. The Emperor wanted to be remembered for years and he was because of what he was wearing.I recommend this book to anyone that fancies a funny book.

I thought that this book is very funny and and a good book for little kids. I liked boris because he was very funny. It was very interesting because the emperor had loads of clothes. I would definitely recommend this book for a kid like me or younger.

The empror was not cleaver and was fooled by the thugs. THe empror was lazy and was interseted in show off his clothes. He never cared about the his advisors or never bothered about his enemies. He was intereseted in wearing good clothes. He wanted a new dress for the royal procession. Two theifs made king and his servants fool about making invisible dress. So kind listened to the theif and went naked to the royal procession. He was very much ashamed. The liked the emperor. The kind didn't use his brain and he was fooled by thugs. He was not supposed to believe strangers. Yes recommended.

The emperor is very cautious of what he wears because he wants people to think he looks very good. I would recommend it to someone else.
