Pre Christmas Cryptic Quiz: Theme Of The Quiz Is 'Childhood Memories: Books, Nursery Rhymes, Pantomimes, Fairy Tales.

Now down to the final three... No letters except for the number of letters...

CARE FOR A FOOLISH YOUNG WOMAN (6,5)

FICTIONAL GIRL OR NURSE IN VERSE (5) I'm thinking ALICE but what that has to do with Nurse or Verse I can't think...

I LOOK BACK AND MAKE A NOISE LIKE A BIRD (10) As discussed previously - I can only think of TWEEDLEDUM or TWEEDLEDEE but as pointed out to me - that has nothing to do with looking back!! Mother thinks OLI something...

Thanks in advance..

Thank you Emeritus
Alice was the name of Christopher Robin's nurse.
