Abstract
I am convinced that I have seen this book before in some language, but perhaps that is only an indication that I have had to delay so long to catalogue it. Its particular gift is that it uses puppets to present the story, including a Kaiser with a strangely green face. This Kaiser wears something like a full-length nightshirt. When he makes his realization in the parade, he thinks "Nun muss ich die Prozession aushalten." He carries himself yet more proudly. The two happiest people in this book are the crooked "tailors," and t hey get away. "Das Volk jedoch freute sich über die unverzeihliche Dummheit des Kaisers and seines Gefolges und jubelte." Like the fable books we have from the same publisher, this is a simple, pleasant book. Canvas bound.
