ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Ann Moore (impostor)

So, let's talk about Ann Moore! She was a lady who pretended to be someone else. Pretending to be someone else is called being an impostor.

Ann Moore pretended to be a lady named Princess Caraboo. Princess Caraboo was supposed to be a royal highness from a faraway place called Javasu. That's a very fancy name, isn't it?

Ann Moore dressed up in fancy clothes and told everyone that she was Princess Caraboo. She even made up a language that she spoke and acted like she was from a faraway land.

People were very interested in Princess Caraboo because they thought she was a real-life princess. They took her picture and wrote about her in the newspaper.

But one day, some people who were from Javasu came to England and saw Princess Caraboo. They said that she was not from their country and that she was lying!

It turned out that Ann Moore had been pretending to be someone else the whole time! People were very upset with her and Ann had to go away and live a different life.

So, pretending to be someone else is not a good thing to do. It's important to be truthful and honest about who you are.
