19 posts | 10 read | 1 to read
The tale of the emperor and his court, who allow themselves to be swindled by two impostors until a child tells the truth. The famous and much-loved Danish author Hans Christian Andersen celebrated his 200 anniversary the year 2005. On this occasion we have published five of his best tales retold for children aged 3-9 years and with new illustrations: Tinderbox, The Little Match Girl, The Nightingale, The Emperor's New Clothes and The Ugly Duckling. Hans Christian Andersen wrote The Emperors New Clothes in 1844.

Bookwomble Library Thing is having a technical issue. Hopefully it'll be fixed soon so we can enjoy your cat 🐈 (Pictures were working on the Litsy website when I tried it yesterday, if that's an option for you 🙂) 1y
Suet624 My workaround has been to go through the web to litsy.com on my phone. Photos show up that way. 1y

This one is probably more a case of Believing is Seeing than #SeeingIsBeleiving, but it popped into my head when looking at @Eggs #SeptemberSenses prompt.

This classic Hans Christian Anderson story is a #CautionaryTale not to believe everything you are told without confirmation. It is often used in modern settings, as in this cartoon from the last US Presidential Election campaign.

These are some of my #childhoodfavorite (s) I remember asking my parents to read to me and got so frustrated that they wouldn‘t read them 5,6 times a night that I learned to read at 4 years old so that I could continue to read after my parents went to bed. They knew what I was doing but were so proud that they didn‘t stop me and I will always be thankful for that!! #springintoreading @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @vkois88

Thanks so much Jenny for your lovely chatty card - it came at the end of (another) rubbish day off work, topped off by a cancelled train, then a very delayed train....

So nice to get this when I came through the door 2 hours late....!

I‘ll reply to you soon....

1. Strangely, the Emperor‘s New Clothes is my favourite. Maybe because it‘s the most political one?

2. Shrek, as I‘ve never seen Monsters Inc.

3. 10:05 PM in Northern Ireland.

4. Onions. Also meat, as I‘m a vegetarian.

5. I‘ll tag my newest Litsy friend, @LMJenkins . Thanks for adding me! Thanks also for tagging me, @Moray_Reads 😊.

This is a fary tale picture book which swept me away with his comic way of picking his daily clothes thinking of himself as the best dressed emperor of them all times. I would use this book for a play in drama class ...http://www.lansingstatejournal.com/story/entertainment/arts/2017/11/22/childrens-show-takes-stage-riverwalk
