Product Info Reviews

Description:

For many, the words "Caps for sale!" will elicit an old, happy memory of the favorite childhood story about a peddler who stacks caps on top of his head--until a band of monkeys gets in on the action. So they will be thrilled to spend a day at the circus with the same affable salesman in Esphyr Slobodkina's refreshed edition of the sequel to Caps for Sale. When the dapper peddler finds himself at a circus one day, he seizes the opportunity to hawk his wares. Unfortunately, a mischievous passing elephant seems to be his most interested customer. Soon caps are flying, to the delight of clowns, jugglers, tumblers, and especially the watching crowd. The story of how the peddler manages to reclaim--and then sell--all his caps, will charm the hat off any reader. We're glad a whole new generation of children can now experience Slobodkina's familiar, old-fashioned illustrations as well as the humorous, preposterous plot. (Ages 3 to 7) --Emilie Coulter
