SLOBODKINA, Esphyr

This title does not have quite the streamlined plot and wit of its predecessor, but enough of the genius of Caps for Sale shines through to make it a treat for children and adults who want to reunite with the peddler and his naughty monkeys for a new adventure. Purchase where the classic is popular.

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.
