I recently picked up a very old Mother Goose book; probably belonged to my mom. It was on my daughter’s book shelf with the cover ripped off. I began to reread the rhymes/stories and WOW, it is a very morbid book... pick it up again and read through some of them, you may be a little surprised. From locking your wife in a pumpkin to biting off noses, I'm not so sure this book should be advertised anymore as a children’s classic.
