Herry has a little monster lamb.

Mary Had a Little Lamb is a nursery rhyme by Sarah Josepha Hale, first published in 1830.

The poem was inspired by an actual pet lamb belonging to Mary Sawyer. At the encouragement of her brother, the young Mary brought her lamb to school one day, resulting in the poem still recited by children generations later.

The poem has been referenced in numerous Muppet productions over the years.
