More Caps for Sale: Another Tale of Mischievous Monkeys, by Esphyr Slobodkina, Ann Marie Mulhearn Sayer From School Library Journal PreS-K—Published posthumously, this book is an obvious labor of love for Sayer, who worked closely with Slobodkina for years. Using ideas and illustrations from the beloved author's works, Sayer constructed this sequel to the classic Caps for Sale, which closely mirrors the original, while continuing the story in a way that stays true to Slobodkina's voice and illustration style. She was one of the first illustrators to use abstract and collage art in children's books, and this new title is a celebration of her simplicity in line, color, and landscape. Children will delight in the monkeys' antics as they follow the peddler home. In this "monkey see, monkey do" tale, the monkeys and the peddler interact in various scenarios, each resulting in a mimicking of good behavior. The peddler spends most of his night and the next morning worried that he has not sold any hats. As he heads into town the next day, the monkeys follow him again, which favorably results in many hat sales for the peddler this time around. VERDICT This reimagining of the classic tale is a recommended purchase not only for the quality of the story but also because of the wonderful history of children's literature that is tied to it.—Jasmine L. Precopio, Fox Chapel Area School District, Pittsburgh, PA
Review Rhythmic, repetitive, child-friendly storytelling. The story feels satisfyingly complete. (New York Times Book Review)“How often does a sequel pick up exactly where its predecessor left off—75 yars later? A worthy successor to Slobodkina’s original. (Publishers Weekly)
From the Back Cover
The beloved classic Caps for Sale is now celebrating its 75th anniversary with a brand-new sequel featuring the caps peddler and those mischievous monkeys, now with even more monkey business in store!
In Caps for Sale, the peddler woke up from an afternoon nap to discover a tree full of monkeys all wearing his caps. Well, he got his caps back, but the story doesn't end there!
When More Caps for Sale begins, it is later that same day and the peddler starts his walk home. He does not look back. He does not notice monkeys following him. Right foot, left foot, right foot, left foot. All in step.
Now they are sitting in the tree in the peddler's backyard. Those monkeys!
The peddler is about to have another extraordinary adventure. True to their nature, the sixteen monkeys that make up the Caps for Sale troop mimic the peddler, but this time good things just might happen.
Filled with warmth and humor, this easy-to-read book is perfect for early readers and follows the same great folktale tradition as the original Caps for Sale.

3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Cute sequel, and worth picking up for a discounted price! By Stuart Dunn This is an unofficial sequel to Caps for Sale. It was not written by Esphyr Slobodkina, but instead by Ann Marie Mulhearn Sayer. The style of the story and illustrations are in the same vein as the original. In this book, the story takes place almost immediately after the original took place. The annoying/cute (depending on your perspective) monkeys are still present, as is the repetition that made the first one an excellent early reader. Unlike the first one where the peddler went home with all his caps, he is actually able to sell all his caps this time, in large part because of the monkeys. Overall, it's a cute story, especially if you love the original. If you can get it for a good price, I'd recommend it, but I would not pay $19 for it.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Fun to read and fun for my children to listen to! By Cheryl I recently had the opportunity to read my children, 3 & 5, More Caps for Sale. I haven't had the opportunity to read the first in the series, but hope to soon. My children enjoyed hearing about those mischievous monkeys. We would stop every time the peddler noticed the monkeys and all laugh and say, "uh-oh, what are the monkeys going to do?" My three year old had to stop me whenever we reached a page where the peddler was wearing all his hats to talk about the colors of the hats, and the five year old needed to continue the pause to count the hats. It was a nice story, well told and well illustrated with a fun 50's vibe to it. I would recommend the book and plan to get the rest of the series.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. a sequel to a childhood favorite of mine By Michele K. McBane I was thrilled to see More Caps for Sale, a sequel to a childhood favorite of mine, published, and even more pleased to discover that it stayed true to the characters' personalities and that the illustrations and colors followed exactly in the original's footsteps. Copies of both books are proudly displayed on my bookshelf to be enjoyed over and over again by my family, guests, and our future grandchildren. Thanks for a job well done!!
