What is How selfish! about?

Dot and Duck discover a stick, but they see it very differently: Dot thinks it is a sword, while Duck imagines a flag. Dot wants the stick all to herself and will do almost anything to stop Duck from playing with it. As their squabble grows, Dot learns that being selfish can spoil their fun. With plenty of humour and lively moments, this warm story explores sharing, good manners and the importance of friendship.
