Reading Notes: Nursery Rhymes A

some of these are styled differently from how i remember them. i memorized the whole mother goose book at like age 3 so reading these slightly off rhymes is really weird

the first one that catches my eye is the on old duck hunter who shoots a duck for dinner. the only interesting bit is at the end when he promises his wife he'll go out and shoot a drake. like... a dragon? the duck hunter v the dragon

robbin the bobbin - man who can eat literally anything and anyone and never gets full. either a horror story or a superpower

I might by able to add in the rhyme about the piper's son to the tale of the dragon. if he can make anything dance by playing his pipes that might come in hand to fight a dragon



(this probably isn't a hunter but he is fighting a cool dragon)
