Book Review 2-5 "The Emperor’s New Clothes"

I read this book that title is “The Emperor’s New Clothes”. Do you know this story? It is famous story in Japan, too. I think you have read this story once at least. When I was a little child, I read it several times.

This story is funny and it is a stupid emperor’s story. You can listen to this story with CD. Now, I’ll explain about this story… If you know this story, you needn’t read next 4 paragraphs. Please skip that.

Long time ago, there was an emperor, and he really loved clothes. He didn’t care about other things, he only care just his clothes. He had seven thousand, three hundred and twenty-two outfits! However, he never want to wear he wore once, so he suggested his servant, Boris, to find the finest clothes-makers in town.

Boris spend much time every day to find that person the emperor ordered, and one day, he found them, because two strangers rushed up to him and said they’re the finest clothes-makers in the world. Soon, Boris took them in a palace. Professed the finest clothes-makers in the world said they made magical clothes. According to them, these looked invisible clothes if anyone stupid saw. The emperor was very excited and he handing them a sack of money…

After that, those two men laughed. They couldn’t help laughing because it was a flat lie! They pretended to make clothes, but Boris couldn’t see it. Boris believed their lie, so he pretended to see that cloth, because he didn’t want to be presumed stupid. It applied other his feudatories and it same for the emperor, too.

The emperor went out in town, there were many people. Everyone had heard that only clever people could see his clothes, so people admired his clothes in chorus, but a small child said the emperor’s got nothing on! Then, his father agreed him and faster than a spreading fire, a whisper whizzed through the crowd. As the emperor heard their whisper, he felt cold and he saw that they were right. At that time, tow cheats cackled with glee.

It was very funny story. Since a long time ago, it is saying like that is an emperor says right, whatever it was wrong, it became right. This story’s interest thing is only a child could say right thing honestly. Adult have prepossession, and very know logic. In contrast children are unbiased and pure. The boy didn’t know well about logic, but he knows other things like saying what he thought right! It is very important thing to against if it was wrong.

I’m very tired to write this… It took much time…
