What is The emperor's new clothes about?

A proud emperor cares more about looking magnificent than ruling wisely. When two clever tricksters promise to make him the finest clothes in the land, they claim the fabric is invisible to anyone who is foolish or unfit for their position. The emperor and his courtiers pretend to see the beautiful garments, too embarrassed to admit the truth. At last, during a grand procession, one honest child speaks up and reveals what everyone else is afraid to say.
