Nasty nursery Rhymes.

Nursery rhymes and fairy tales were originally written as cautionary tales, to convince children to behave or bad things will happen.If yo have ever been lucky enough to read some of the original tales you will find they were a lot darker and more grisly than the modern adaptations, most definately not politically correct in todays world.

Here we have re-written some of the famous nursery rhymes in what might have been a more authentic way.
