The Old Couple and Selroti

by Prabha Bhattarai

An old married couple is fighting. They both want more of a delicious, fried rice-flour doughnut called sel roti. But there are five sel roti. How will they decide who gets to eat three sel roti and who will eat two?

A warm folktale where a loving old couple and their generous neighbors turn a craving for fried selroti into a sweet little lesson about sharing, even down to the very last one.
