Answer #1

Nope, little miss muffet sat on a tuffet. Couldn’t tell you who wrote that though.

Answer #2

There was an old woman who lived in a shoe:

There was an old woman who lived in a shoe. She had so many children, she didn’t know what to do. She gave them some broth without any bread, Then whipped them all soundly and put them to bed.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING !!

Answer #3

Well, one story is that Dr. Thomas Muffet wrote it to depict his daughter, Patience, in the 1600’s.

“Little Miss Muffet sat on a tuffet Eating her curds and whey, Along came a spider, Who sat down beside her And frightened Miss Muffet away.”

As for who lived in the shoe, all I recall is that it was an old woman. She had so many children, she didn’t know what to do.

“There was an old woman who lived in a shoe. She had so many children, she didn’t know what to do. She gave them some broth without any bread, Then whipped them all soundly and put them to bed.”

Maybe it was “Patience” in her later years? Grin
