A Thanksgiving Story!
Mary’s Little Lamb.
Henry Altemus Company: Philadelphia. 1906.
Please Help Poor Bossy!
The cow, when she saw the little girls, went “Moo-oo-oo!” as if she were trying to say, “Can’t you help me?”
“Poor bossy!” said Alice; “I’ll try and help you.”
It was hard work, but after patient efforts bossy was released, and then she went “Moo-oo” again, as though she said, “Thank you.”

What Would The Lobster Think?
“WHAT WOULD YOU THINK?”
If you saw pennies not round but square,
Or an oyster walking down the stair,
Or a lobster sitting in your arm-chair –
What would you think?
.
If I saw all these things, or some,
I’m sure I’d say that I had come
To the land of Topsy-turvydom –
What would you think?

Land Of Topsy-Turvydom!
“WHAT WOULD YOU THINK?”
If you saw an elephant climb a tree
Or a snail in an eggshell go to sea,
Or a donkey drinking a cup of tea –
What would you think?
If you saw houses upside down,
A beggar wearing a golden crown,
If the stars were red and the clouds were brown –
What would you think?
If you saw pennies not round but square,
Or an oyster walking down the stair,
Or a lobster sitting in your arm-chair –
What would you think?
If I saw all these things, or some,
I’m sure I’d say that I had come
To the land of Topsy-turvydom –
What would you think?
