"Little Arabella Miller" is a popular English nursery rhyme often sung in pre-schools. Most references to the song do not attribute a writer but Ann Eliott has been previously cited as a composer.〔http://museumvictoria.com.au/pages/2085/Bugs-bugs-bugs-Rhymes-Music.pdf.〕〔http://www.abc.net.au/children/play/grownup/prognote/series158.htm〕 It is also an action song, sung to the tune of "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star".〔Twinkle Twinkle Little Star#cite note-1〕 ==Lyrics== The rhyme has just one verse but there are several variants which focus on the description of the caterpillar (furry, fuzzy, woolly), and on the family members mentioned in the rhyme (mother, brother, grandmother, baby brother). Here is a version sung in England: "Little Arabella Miller Found a furry caterpillar First it climbed upon her mother Then upon her baby brother "Ugh" said Arabella Miller "Take away that caterpillar!" " Other versions Little Arabella Miller Had a fuzzy caterpillar First it crawled upon her brother Then upon her dear grandmother Gran said, "Arabella Miller, How I love your caterpillar. Little Arabella Miller Had a fuzzy caterpillar. First it climbed upon her mother, Then upon her baby brother. They said, " Arabella Miller, Put away your caterpillar!" Little Arabella Miller Found a hairy caterpillar, First it crawled upon her mother, Then upon her baby brother. All said, "Arabella Miller, Take away that caterpillar!" 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Little Arabella Miller」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
