Reading Week 13: Nursery Rhymes part A
The Nursery Rhyme Book by Andrew Lang
My idea for my story is to have my main character land in a word of nursery rhymes and meets all of the characters. so my notes will be mainly around the main characters and their situations
Tales:
the man in the moon
babes in the wood DIED WHAT?? They were stolen and died. Why is this a nursery rhyme??
the crooked man, who had a crooked house and cat and mouse
Simple Simon
The lion and the unicorn were fighting fro the crown. It seems the lion won.
Tom the piper's son stole a pig, ate him, and was beat for it
My lady Wind set the house on fire
Taffy was a Welshman, and he stole things
Litttle Jack Horner
Solomon Grundy, the poem makes it seem like he lived only a week
Proverbs:
The characters need to speak in the nursery rhyme proverbs
Monday's Child is one of my favorite poems. I definitely want to include it in my story
For want of a nail, aka a kingdom can be lost over the smallest detail
March winds and april showers, bring forth may flowers aka you need the bad before the good
Songs:
Little bo-peep
sing a song of sixpence
Tom, the pipers son (because tom has two stories, i could include both in my story)
The queen of hearts
Riddles:
Characters asking different riddles to the main character could add to the main character's confusion in the story book
Paradoxes:
these rhymes are contradictory, and funny. A character acting those out would look very silly.
Charms and Lullabies:
Ending the story with the main characters going to sleep with one of these lullabies
Games:
Here sits lord mayor is a good riddle to use
