Summary
The Emperor's New Clothes: con-artists who fool a vain and ruthless Emperor into believing that they can create the most exquisite of clothes that are invisible to those who are foolish or unworthy ; The Nightingale: The Emperor of Cathay lives in a porcelain palace with his courtiers and riches, but completely cut off from any real people. When he hears about a magical bird called the Nightingale and it's exquisite song, he demands an audience with it ; The Snow Queen: Gerda and Kay enter the frozen land of the Snow Queen to learn some much-needed lessons about love and friendship; and Thumbelina: A lonely char-woman is given a magical barley seed, which sprouts into a lovely flower. When the flower opens, out pops beautiful Thumbelina: A char-woman's wish to be a mother has been granted, and she could not be happier. But Thumblina's happy life with her mother is short-lived when the tiny creature is kidnapped by Mother Toad..
