Part 1 of 2.
In this memorable cartoon, the none-too-cheery stories behind well-known nursery rhymes are revealed. Each segment begins with an upbeat performance of the song, follows with a depiction of the historical inspiration, and concludes with a somehow less jolly rendition of the tune. It covers "Little Jack Horner", "Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary", "London Bridge is Falling Down" with a clever contrast of amusing animation and serious narration.

Man, I loved this as a kid. They used to show it on "Quack attack" and "Mouse Tracks" on the Disney channel. I'll admit, though, it scared me as a small child..especially the part about Mary.
This is wonderful, as always good old Disney! And specially interesting for non-English. But I'm in two minds about how they showed Mary (who's one of my favourite figures). I'm glad they didn't make her look like a monster in opposite to Elisabeth, like-forgive me-many English do. But instead they suggested she was awful fizgig-and had no interest in country. 5:52 is quite outrageous. And she wasn't like that! But oh well... let's not be too meticuolous. Children's cartoon and a good one :)
Gah! Mary Stuart never met Elizabeth. Mary spent all her time in England under arrest in the North. Sorry, I re-enact this period, and we get people all the time asking where Mary Queen of Scots is. (twitch)

Now I know more about Mary Queen of Scots.
I readed one book called:
THE KINGS AND QUEENS OF ENGLAND
