Art generally imitates life. This book highlights how the death penalty and murder have influenced toy making, pop culture, art, and music. It also addresses issues of equality and injustice involved in death sentencing. Many toys and dolls are illustrated and discussed, including those representing royalty, famous trials and murderers. Included are a brief guide for reading legal cases, an actual United States Supreme Court case, and a brief history of capital punishment theories, exercises and more. Librarians, historians, legal practitioners, museum curators, law professors, criminologists, doll and toy collectors and students alike will find this book useful. Given how often capital punishment appears in everyday life, general readers will find it interesting and engaging.

Many nursery rhymes are believed to be associated with actual events in history, and include references to murder, torture, betrayal, greed, and to tyrants and royalty. The words were remembered but their secret histories were forgotten. Political satire was cleverly disguised in the wording of some, seemingly innocent, nursery rhymes. Although some of the most popular Nursery Rhymes are rooted in English history they are told to children throughout the English-speaking world. Old English Nursery Rhymes were taken to America with the settlers from England. They were then spread across Commonwealth countries including Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
