How Messy!
About This Book
Dot and Duck are close friends whose habits could hardly be more different. Dot cannot tolerate untidiness, while Duck seems to prefer a room in disarray. Duck's bed stays unmade, cupboard doors hang open, and breakfast ends up scattered across the house. Duck also shows generosity, cooking Dot pancakes in the morning, though that effort leaves a huge mess behind. A trip to the beach brings more trouble. Dot carefully spreads out her towel and picnic, only for Duck to dig a large hole that buries everything under sand. The story is told in simple language and large type, which suits young readers, and characterful watercolour illustrations bring the characters to life. The tale is light and funny, and it ends on a warm note while carrying a lesson about accepting differences and finding ways to compromise. The book is part of the Dot and Duck series, which follows the everyday adventures of the two friends in comical stories. Other titles in the series include How Rude! and How Selfish!
