The Cap Seller And The Monkeys
This simple short moral story is sure to tickle your child’s funny bones.
After spending a couple of days selling in the nearby village, the cap seller was on his way back to his village. He was carrying the caps.
He was tired from all the standing and less sleep.
“Oh, I just will sleep for a bit and walk faster to reach the village!”
He found a big tree to sleep under.
Soon, the cap seller was fast asleep. After what seemed like hours, he woke up with a start.
He woke up to see all the caps gone, except for one.
“My caps! My caps! Who could have taken them?” he yelled aloud.
Just then, he heard chatterings from up the tree!
“Ah, those monkeys!” he cried.
As he thought about what he could do, he had an idea!
He picked the cap from the ground and wore it.
The monkeys observing him put on the caps too!
He removed his cap and threw it to the ground.
All the monkeys removed and threw the caps too!
The cap seller quickly picked up all the caps and walked as fast as he could towards his village.
