I chose
this book because I remember reading it as a young kid and I have not seen it
since. It was on of my favorite books as a child. An emperor who loved fancy
clothes had two men to make him the finest clothes he had ever seen. While the
two men pretended to make his clothes to wear in the procession, he pretended
to see them. In reality he has to go threw the procession without any clothes
on.
The illustrations
in this book look to have been done with watercolors. They are very colorful.
The book contains double page spread illustrations. According to the illustrations,
the story looks to have a Chinese setting. The Font in this book appears to be
large compared to other books that I have read.
I think the
book would be good for younger elementary children. This book would be good to
use in the classroom. It can be use to teach children that they can not always
trust strangers. I would also work on sequence of events by having children
retell what happened in the book. This book also has a good bit of vocabulary
that children might not understand. I would also use the book to help build
vocabulary comprehension. This book has not received any awards.
