Once a sailor came to South America. He had a lot of red woollen caps with him. He was going to sell them there. On his way to the nearest town he had to go through a forest in which there were a lot of monkeys in the trees. At noon, when the sun was shining brightly in the sky, the sailor lav down on the grass to rest under a large tree. He took one of the caps out of his bag and put it on his head and almost immediately he fell asleep. When he woke up he found that all the caps had disappeared. Suddenly he heard some strange noise over his head. He looked up and saw the trees full of monkeys and each monkey was wearing a red woollen cap! They had stolen all his red caps! The sailor began to shout and throw stones at them but the monkeys weren't going to give the red caps back. They were very pleased with themselves. The sailor got very angry with the monkeys. He took off the cap which he had put on before going to sleep and threw it angrily on the ground: "If you keep my caps and don't want to give them back to me, you may take this one too!" At the same moment all the monkeys took off the red caps and threw them on the ground. The sailor took the caps, put them into the bag and went away.
