Without taking sides and with no offense to anyone, I just wanted to point out that "Chicken Little" is not an alliteration...
Examples of an alliteration:
"Choking chicken"
"Frequent Flyer"
"Persistent Punki"
"Teacup Tornado"</font>
No offense, but I think that two of these are alliterations only in print; "Persistent Punki" and "Teacup Tornado" aren't oral alliterations because the accented syllables in each word-pair begin with different sounds: in the first, the accents are on S and P, and in the second, they are on T and N.
