HEIRARCHY *IF


Although the manuscript for this story needs more work, I think the text for the little girl’s thoughts works well for this week's theme.

“I think the Emperor is smart already.
There is nothing in his cup, and that’s alright by him.”

In the story, the Emperor gains confidence through the help of his little daughter.
Perhaps hierarchy has more to do with the way we perceive ourselves than the position we hold.

I totally agree--it's definitely how we perceive ourselves.

Wonderful illustration! I love the attitudes of all the people in it.
