Once there was a man who
sold caps. He carried many
caps in a basket on his head.
He was a cap-seller.
One day, he slept under a tree.
There were monkeys on the tree.
They came down from the tree.
They took away all the caps.
The cap-seller woke up.
He saw the basket was
empty! He looked around
and above. The monkeys
were wearing his caps.
The cap-seller shook his fists at
the monkeys. They also did the
same. The cap-seller scratched his
head. The monkeys did the same.
The cap-seller had an idea!
He took off his cap and threw it
into the empty basket.
The monkeys also did the same.
The cap-seller got all his caps back and went away happily.
