Subject: RE: Famous People in Children's Rhymes
Thanks, GUEST 12 Oct 08 - 05:25 PM for posting that example.

For the purposes of this thread, I think it's okay to be somewhat "liberal" in our interpretation of what constitutes a children's rhyme. As long as there's no known documentation of the rhyme being written by an adult or adults, if children recited it or still recite it, the example can count as a children's rhyme.

At least, that's my view.
