简介：
Subtitled A Tale of a Peddler, Some Monkeys and Their MonkeyBusiness, this absurd and very simple story has become a classic,selling hundreds of thousands of copies since its first publicationin 1940. A peddler walks around selling caps from a tall, totteringpile on his head. Unable to sell a single cap one morning, he walksout into the countryside, sits down under a tree, checks that allthe caps are in place, and falls asleep. When he wakes up, the capsare gone--and the tree is full of cap-wearing monkeys. His attemptsto get the caps back generate the kind of repetitive rhythm that 3-and 4-year-olds will adore.
Good natured nonsense tale in text and pictures. The text isalmost unnecessary as text and pictures tell the story of thepeddler who fell asleep and had his whole stock in trade of coloredcaps stolen by the monkeys. And of how mere chance made him do theone thing that persuaded the monkeys to throw away the caps.
