A bouncy, rhythmic text presents a curious toddler crowd acknowledging the wonders of their bodies: "I have two feet / that dart, / that dash..." The text then shifts to (unspecific) expressions of gratitude: "I have two hands to pray... / I have one mouth to say... / Thank you!" Softly tinted watercolors effectively depict cheery toddlers.

The narrator's grandmother tells her about the eager anticipation of the young girl's birth: her dad wrote a song for her, a great-uncle kept phoning from out of state, etc. Though the story is anticlimactic, both the text and the lively images capture the excitement of awaiting a baby's arrival.
