Mary Had a Little Lamb, la la la :)
The nursery rhyme was first published as an original poem by Sarah Josepha Hale on May 24, 1830, and was inspired by an actual incident.
As a girl, Mary Sawyer (later Mrs. Mary Tyler) kept a pet lamb, which she took to school one day at the suggestion of her brother... You can read the whole story HERE. Isn't it amazing how such a simple story became a song and how such a simple song became so famous? I just had to create my own version or Mary and her little lamb in a papercut. I had the most fun creating the little lamb. Should we find a name for it? I think that the little lamb deserves a good name :) This original piece, the same one that you see in the picture, is available now on my Etsy store. I promise to make new versions soon! I have also listed the black and white print of it in the 4"x6" format. La la la la.. Have a great day my friend! Elsita :)
