Summary: A true classic
Review: This book is well loved by my son and myself. I love books that have simple pictures that add to the text rather than distract. I like the simple story line. I particularly like that this book can be used as a stepping stone to other activities (acting like a monkey, balancing hats on your head etc.) The repetitive nature and sing songy words are wonderful for prereading skills. My son loves to act like a monkey stealing my hat as we read this book. A true classic.

Summary: A Classic Favorite Book
Review: This is a book that we have read 100 times and it is always fun. Read it to a group of young readers and act out the actions of the monkeys mimicing the cap salesman. The kids will be spellbound.

Summary: fun story
Review: This is a fun story that teaches colors while telling a very funny tale. My son thought it was hilarious when I turned the page and he discovered *what* had taken the peddler's caps.

Summary: A truly great kids book!
Review: This is a sweet story of a peddler who sells caps. The illustrations are superb, and the story is fun. The seller carries his supply on his head. (First is own cap, then the...). One day he sits under a tree and when he awakes nearly all the caps are missing! Where did they go? Well, buy this book and read it aloud to your kids and have a great time together.

Summary: A great classic!
Review: When I read this book to my son, he loved the monkeys and the way that they imitated the peddler. If you act out the story, it is much more amusing and fun for the little ones. It has a rhythmic pattern that kids love. It helps children to think about what will happen next and predict the ending of the story. This is a very strong example of a circular text structure. All children should learn different text structures. It helps with comprehension. My son loved the illustrations. They are not fancy graphics or pictures with many colors. They are simple illustrations yet, it draws the attention. It is a must read for all kids.
