Little Betty Blue loses one holiday shoe, and the simple fix is to give her another to match. A small, tidy problem-and-solution rhyme that very young children follow easily.
From Mother Goose / Nursery Rhymes (traditional). See the whole collection.
Little Betty Blue
Lost her holiday shoe;
What shall little Betty do?
Give her another
To match the other
And then she'll walk upon two.
