    Old Baba Hubbard

    went to her cupboard

    to get her ainekel a treat

    When she got there

    the supply wasn’t there

    that Yankel ate it all, the cheat!

    There was a dear mama

    who lived in back of a shul

    she had so many children,

    and so much to do

    so she fed them some supper,

    kissed all their heads,

    said the shema

    and sent them to bed!

    (i don’t know if my other post got deleted or went thru.sorry if this is a double!)

    Yaakov and Yehudis went up the hill to fetch a pail of water

    Yak fell down

    and broke his bone

    so Yehudis said refuah sheleima!

    Little Miss Molly

    lost her dolly

    and didn’t know where to find her

    the eensy weensy spider crawled up the water spout

    Mrs. Balebusta saw it and it caused her to pout,

    up came the broom to wipe it all away

    and the eensy weensy spider did not crawl up again!

    I gathered that from your posts, when you said that these things stay in your mind forever. That’s what makes me nervous, things that seem harmless, but choose to make their appearance in my mind during tefilla and the like.

    thanks for sharing your experience.

    Now it’s relatively easy, as I don’t have access to many secular books here in eretz yisrael, It’s the mindset I’m trying to cultivate!

    A panda bear walks into a bar and orders a sandwich. The waiter brings him the sandwich. The panda bear eats it, pulls out a pistol, kills the waiter, and gets up and starts to walk out.

    hi ames!

    What about really little kids books like Dr Suess… I had a teacher in sem who said that any mom that still reads those books to her kids has a lot of answering to do, now that there is such a wide plethora of Jewish children books…

    But i LOVE Dr. Suess books!!

    Is it treif? :/

    I know, it’s true, but there are a few things that keep getting me confused again – most of my friends and even role models are reading these books, love to analyze them together… A respected mentor of mine teaches Literature in a frum high school, is obssessed with great classics and it gets me thinking… if these bais yakov schools are teaching these stories, then…???
