I love this alphabet. Sadly, I didn't discover it until I was an adult. I got it as a poster and hung it in my bathroom. (Why do I always put such morbid things in my bathroom?) Anyway, it's a classic and should be used to warp young mind --- and old ones.

You see, each "tiny" is assigned a letter and then a description of how they perished. Ruthless! One of my favorite letters is B. As it is for Basil, assaulted by bears. How can you not at least chuckle?
