Tottie and Dot are two little girls who live side by side. They love all the same things and are the perfect neighbours. Life is lovely and peaceful until, one day, the girls begin competing with each other to create the best house!
As the story unfolds, jealousy takes hold and their competitive spirit gets increasingly out of control. Flamingos run around gardens, rollercoasters fly off their tracks, circuses turn into mayhem… until everything collapses in a disastrous heap! Will Tottie and Dot be able to salvage the situation by realising the importance of their friendship?
Beautifully illustrated and thoughtfully told, the story shines on the page. Each girl’s house is shown over a series of exquisitely illustrated double-page spreads — Tottie on the left and Dot on the right. The detailed illustrations perfectly complement the simple story line and will provide children aged 4–7 with hours of entertainment, as well as a valuable life lesson! Help children learn how to support each other instead of competing to ‘be the best’ with this gorgeous, funny, and thought-provoking book.
