From Booklist
Gr. 1^-3. A comical take on a familiar tale, complete with an added happy ending. Oversize type and extra leading promote easy reading, and words such as definitely, royal, and emperor provide a nice stretch for beginners. Alley's plentiful, energetic pictures extend the fun: imagine the silly emperor, in boxers and a T-shirt, striding happily through town. Stephanie Zvirin
