My little monkeys (the human kind) love the repetition of the classic tale Caps for Sale by Esphyr Slobodkina. This story is a fun one to act out during a read-aloud. It leads to great discussions on frustration and anger and how to deal with these emotions. Follow-up: have children create an item to sell- paper dolls, paintings, paper boats, friendship bracelets and them the children can sell and buy from each other using coins or fake money.
