Nursery Rhyme Cold Cases

We all know the story about Little Miss Muffet, but did she ever get over being arachnophobic, and Jack and Jills little hike up the hill, did they ever recover from their nasty spill, and poor Humpty Dumpty with his tragic plummet, were all the kings men using his remains to make an omelette, and Rock-a-Bye Babys cradle being placed on a treetop, were the babys parents ever apprehended, and the London Bridge which is falling down, why is the infrastructure so shoddy, was it designed by some clown, and last but not least, when playing Ring around the Rosie, does poor Rosie ever get to survive, these are the cliffhanging nursery rhymes we grew up singing with fun, but like an inquisitive detective want to re-open each case and solve each and every one!

what a clever and cute idea. Re-examining fairy tales. I did something similar to this years ago. Love it.
