The content of the book consists of three main verses: "One, Two, Buckle My Shoe," "A Gaping-Wide-Mouth-Waddling-Frog," and "My Mother." The first verse offers a whimsical counting rhyme that spans various actions and playful imagery, while the second presents a colorful, silly narrative about a frog and a assortment of characters leading to a vibrant conclusion. The final poem is a heartfelt tribute to a mother, highlighting the nurturing relationship between a child and their mother through affectionate memories and promises of care.
