A very bizarre question.

Why do the children's book on the nursery rhyme depict Humpty Dumpty as egg shaped, when the rhyme makes no attempt on describing Humpty dumpty whatsoever ?

Dunno but I want to know why the king sent his horses and men to fix Humpty Dumpty.Horses are not trained in surgical procedures.I'm not aware of any horses that can even scrub up.

@tallpowerhouseblonde sounds like a super glue job to me, and i dont think the horses could do that either.
Then theres Mr.Ed he could talk🤔

@Virgo79 it was hopeless. Super glue was useless

@Virgo79 Hmm, wait a minute. Isn't glue made of horse hooves? Maybe that's where the King's horses came in. 🤔

@ineedadrink A very good theory

@Virgo79 If ever there was anything designed to smash an egg it is a horses hoof.The King will be in deep trouble if anyone invades but his horses and men cannot protect him because they are too busy trying to put Humpty Dumpty back together.
