Curmudgeon's Book of Nursery Rhymes

Beloved nursery rhymes told with a twist. In “Little Bo Peep” the narrator is one of the sheep, who says “In the first place she didn’t lose us,” or in Hickory Dickory Dock” the story is told from the viewpoint of the clock. In “Little Miss Muffet,” the spider says “I was invited to that fateful lunch.” There is also a politically correct version of “Little Bo Peep” rewritten so as not to offend anyone, especially those who are little, that is to say, vertically handicapped or altitudinally challenged.

Sometimes thought provoking, often humorous, the retelling of old stories reflect how the Resident Curmudgeon sees life. A true curmudgeon always looks at things from a little different viewpoint.
