Circus Caps for Sale Paperback – Picture Book, May 11, 2004

I have the first book which is Caps for Sale. I read it to my grandson and he thought it was funny so I ordered this one. I had to make this one funny for him to like it! So this book will probably be hit or miss with children.

This is one of my favorite books from childhood. It's one I frequently give to children, as it's one they usually don't have and that doesn't fail to delight. Nothing sweeter than a child's giggle!

This is a terrific little story. It was 50+ years ago, and it still is today. What was once my favorite story book as a ‘Little’ is now my granddaughter’s favorite book, too. My three year old granddaughter likes to wear a blue beret while pouring over the pages. Simply delightful! There are a series of books about the peddler and his caps. Each an engaging story with marvelous illustrations.

In our family, we have enjoyed copies of this book for four generations.

I had no idea there were more books in the series, but this was a delightful surprise. I grew up reading "Caps for Sale" and now it's one of my daughter's favorites. I can't wait to share this book with her. The careful peddler is foiled in his attempts to sell his wares because of the circus parade and one pesky elephant who causes all of his caps to become part of the act.

Sweet! Sweet! Sweet! Flippin sweat! Yeah! I love this. This is a good thing and I like it. It's almost as cool as the first time I saw the cat use the toilet! It's that good. Really! Yeah!!!

I have always enjoyed reading CAPS FOR SALE to my art students to inspire them to do their own illustrations. After I read the story and they finish their own designs, I then show them the book illustrations.This Circus-themed story was just the perfect book to add to my collections for the study of THE CIRCUS.

It's great when there is a follow up to an old favorite. My 3 year old daughter loves Caps for Sale, when I saw this book I had to get it. It has a bit of a longer story, not so much of the well known "caps, caps for sale, 50 cents a cap", but the story is great.
