Slaughtered Nursery Rhymes

A collection of Nursery Rhymes for all the adults who want to know what really happened to Jack and Jill, Little Bo Peep and Doctor Foster. Not to mention what Mary was actually growing in her garden!

Of our favourite "rhymees", and I trust it will please, or at least raise a giggle or two!
