- Abstract
- en_US The subtitle is surprising since "The Emperor's New Clothes" was also called "A Tale of Honesty." "While he was happy most days just to do his job, some days he wished that something exciting would happen." He had never seen a wolf and wondered even if there were any wolves at all. He even tried to play soccer with the sheep! On the occasion of his first call, the townsfolk came and could find neither a wolf nor the shepherd. When they found him, he was laughing at them. The third cry was for real, and the villagers refused to come again. The wolf made off with all the sheep. The boy went back to his usual place to cry and to reflect. "He paid a big price for a small joke."
