How do you cite a nursery rhyme?

To cite a nursery rhyme in APA format, include the author (if known), year of publication (if available), title of the nursery rhyme in italics (e.g., "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star"), and source (if applicable). For MLA format, follow a similar structure but consider including the type of source (e.g., book, website).

Example in MLA format: Mother Goose. "Humpty Dumpty." The Real Mother Goose, 1916.
