One day a man who made caps went to the market to sell them.
It was a longway to go. The man passed by a long river. When he was in the forest, hedecided to rest a little, as the day was very hot and he was very tired.
The man saw a large tree. He decided to rest under it.
As the sun was very hot, the man put on one of the caps on his head and putall the other caps on the ground under the tree.
The manhad his lanch, then lay down and soon was asleep.
When he wokeup, he could not find the caps.
"Where are my caps?"he cried. He could notfind them anywhere. What could he do?
Suddenly he looked up. And what did he see?
He saw many monkeys in thetree, and each monkey had the mans cap on its head!
"Give me back my caps!" cried the man.
But the monkeys could not undertand the man. They laughed, jumped andplayed with the caps.
The man asked and asked the monkeys to give him back his caps, but themonkeys didnt understand him. They only laughed.
The man got very much angry with the monkeys.
He took off his cap, threw iton the ground and cried:"If you want my caps, you
may take this one, too!"
And do you know what the monkeys did?
They took off the caps and threwthem on the ground!
Thats how the man got back all his caps.
Certainly, he was very glad.
He quickly took all his caps and went away.
