    Three little kittens
    They lost their mittens,
    And they began to cry,
    Oh, mother dear,
    We sadly fear
    Our mittens we have lost.
    What! lost your mittens,
    You naughty kittens!
    Then you shall have no pie.
    Eliza Lee Follen (1787–1860)

    I’d rather you shot at tin cans in the back yard, but I know you’ll go after birds. Shoot all the bluejays you want, if you can hit ‘em, but remember it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.... Mockingbirds don’t do one thing but make music for us to enjoy. They don’t eat up people’s gardens, don’t nest in corncribs, they don’t do one thing but sing their hearts out for us. That’s why it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.
    —Harper Lee (b. 1926)
