I loved this book as a child. I still remember it and I'm 69 years old!

Oh my god. The more I keep digging through the related videos, the more I dig myself through memory lane. Thanks for the nostalgia :)
-
Takes me back to my childhood 😭😭💯

this is incredible. I haven't heard this story in probably 25-30 years, but I remember the images from the book. I remember the monkeys, and trying to count all the different colored hats. It truly blows my mind how we can hold on to these memories for decades and a single image can bring it all back.

all time classic

This book reminds me of me of my childhood. Most importantly, this reminds me of my mom. I miss you Birdie. Thank you for being the best mom ever!!! I miss you.

Dude I’m 24 years old, I used to own this book when I was little and read it a million times. I am now here reading(listening) to it years later once more. Somethings don’t change :) In a time before I had to worry about what people thought of me, before I had to pay bills good times

February 3, 2018- I remember when I was a kid....My gosh...I used to have this book.. Back in 1980's or 1990's...I always have loved this book...
-
I only remembered the fact that the guy walked around with a stack of hats on his head. Not images. Not monkeys. Not the plot. Not the specific style of hat. Just the stack of caps.

Man, it's been AGES since I last read this book! I can remember my library teacher read us this book all the time and I just LOVED the art style and the overall story. Thanks for sharing my childhood :)

In Kindergarten, we had to dress up as a literary character from a book we've read. So I got to show up to class with a bunch of hats stapled onto one another.

Thanks for sharing! Our girls ask to watch it all the time.

This was literally the first book my mother ever read me in English. Thank you so much for reading it on Youtube.

In the book the monkeys say something like "tsss tsss tsss!" One of my favorite childhood memories is my mom trying to read this part to me. So...I'm not into the ad libbed dialog, which I think robs the book of some of its charm. But for the rest, and for putting the illustrations up, thank you!

This book is such a fever dream, I can't believe I just randomly stumbled across it, thank you
-
I remember this was one of many stories read aloud on Captain Kangaroo. Such great memories! 🙂
-
Bring back memories.

I read this book in kindergarten....what memories
-
They did a read aloud on this book when I was in Elementary School in Upstate NY in the early 00’s (2000 - 2005). I didn’t just randomly remember this book. I saw it on a compilation video of kids books from the 00’s. So I came here to revisit it.

I’m so confused bc I vividly remember him saying a little rhyme “Caps for sale, for a dollar! Caps for sale, any colour! Red and yellow, blue and green, finest caps you’ve ever seen!” Lmao I think my gr 1 teacher straight up made up a song for this book
