The story is told in rhyme and entails a young boy named Ned one day deciding to run around naked in public while his parents desperately try to get him to put clothes on.

In 2016, a sequel titled ''Nuddy Ned's Christmas'' was published, which had Nuddy Ned go streaking on Christmas Eve in hopes of meeting Santa Claus.
