Caps for Sale


The peddler in caps for sell teaches our students how to read color words because the caps are gray, brown, blue, and red. He carries the caps on his head, so everyone can see them. One day he walks out of town and decides to take a nap. When he is sleeping, the monkeys in the tree take his caps. He tells the monkeys to give the caps back, but they mimic him by raising their fists or shaking their hands. He has to trick the monkeys into giving them back by throwing his hat unto the ground. Then, the peddler went back to his normal lifestyle of selling caps.
