"As a Kindergarten teacher and a mother, all the children I've ever read this to LOVE it! It makes a great read aloud -- the kids always crack up when I imitate the monkeys. It's also a fun one for acting out and reading with an animated voice. One of my all-time favorite picture books."
"My son absolutely LOVES this book. I hadn't read this before (I know, shame on you children's librarian) but I'm glad that I found it at a thrift shop. He calls out with me "Caps! Caps for sale! 50 cents a cap!" I'm sure I will be reading this over and over and over with Jack."
"One of my top five favorite childrens books of all time! The illustrations are wonderful and the story is silly and fun. I loved this book before I saw it on Reading Rainbow but I loved it even more afterward. This is an absolute requirement for your child's library! They will love it for years to come."
"This is a classic for a reason. Who among us doesn't remember being a child and copying the monkeys who copied the peddler? It has everything children love - mischief, logical consequences, a happy ending, and naps. Well, maybe kids don't love naps.
Of course, I've always wondered where the monkeys came in. It never has seemed the sort of countryside you get those."
