 | Grandkids loved it! Mar 24, 2010 |
| A simple story, simply illustrated, and my two-and four-year-old grandkids loved it! They asked me to read it to them again and again. | | | | Perfect book for an autistic child! Mar 20, 2010 |
| My child is high functioning autistic and is in kindergarten. I went to one of his classes one day and his teacher was reading this book to the class. I found out how much he enjoyed her reading it and he was very involved in it. She took the freedom to be very expressive with the book and he loved it. He would imitate and say "...caps for sale!" and what the monkeys did and new what was coming and had a big smile on his face. Right away I realized that this book was going to be the next addition to our story time collection. I love reading it to him and my other kids because everybody loves it and gets so involve in the story and I truly enjoy how much HE enjoys it too. I love this book and recommend it to everyone. | | | | Fabulous! Feb 7, 2010 |

My girls recently inherited Caps For Sale so I decided to read it to them during one of our dinners this past week. Caps For Sale was written over 70 years ago and is based on a folktale. Although this book is a popular read-aloud book that has sold more than two million copies, I was not familiar with it. The illustrations and story are very simple, but I found the book surprisingly amusing. As the title indicates, there are caps for sale. A salesman has 17 caps on his head and walks up and down streets yelling, "Caps! Caps for sale! Fifty cents a cap!" One morning the peculiar salesman walks out to the sticks and finds a great big tree to rest under. When the man wakes up from his nap, he realizes that 16 of his caps were stolen by 16 cap-stealing monkeys. The story does not end there, but I thought I would not spoil the rest of the story in case you are not familiar with it. I found myself a little intrigued as to what would happen next as I read the story. I just started to regularly read stories to my girls, but I do not normally find myself so curious when reading a book to them. Both of my girls really like the repetitive lines spoken by both the salesman and monkeys. We give Caps For Sale six thumbs up!

My favorite book as a child. I read it all the children in the familiy. They all love it. They really get into it and act along with the story.
