Synopsis:
Donald brags that he knows all the old snowball tricks so the nephews can't resist challenging him...

Comments:
Especially in the early years, Barks wrote many stories inspired and influenced by the often crazed tempo in the Disney animated shorts. The plots were basically the same; Donald and the nephews on collision course...

Synopsis:
Donald and the nephews are running competing boat rentals for fishermen. Donald sabotages their boat in order to get the customer...

Comments:
This time Barks takes the conflicts to a higher plane; the Ducks are not only fighting over small disagreements; Donald and the nephews are both trying to earn a living. Barks wrote a number of stories with this basic theme - in WDCS186 the ducks were also fighting over different transportation methods.

Synopsis:
Donald tries to snap a photo worth a great sum of money but he has to find the right motive first!

Comments:
The basic conflict is still about money, but this time it has a more competitive angle, because the Ducks compete to earn prize money in their free time. WDCS057 contains a similar plot.

Synopsis:
Donald's New Year's resolution is to hold his temper. How hard can that be?

Comments:
Grave conflicts can arise from the oddest reasons. As soon as the nephews learn that Donald has vowed never to get angry again, they immediately begin to pester him!

Synopsis:
Donald and Daisy go out for a picnic and the nephews wants to join them instead of going to school. But the answer is 'No!' so they decide to ruin the picnic instead!

Comments:
The nephews are real nuisances in this story in which Donald only tries to have some quality time with his girlfriend. When he at long last fights back the passions run high - ruining both parties. The nephews tried a similar stunt in WDCS250.

Synopsis:
Donald and the nephews are messenger boys and Donald makes sure that he gets all the easy jobs. But revenge is near!

Comments:
This time Donald is harassing the nephews, because they have more success than him. His jealousy transforms into a bitter competition - from which the nephews come out on top.

Synopsis:
The nephews have been building kites all winter long and now - on the first spring day - they want to try them out. Donald is more interested in fishing...

Comments:
Barks succeeded in varying the conflict theme by dreaming up a special plot in which the first party, Donald, is not even aware that he is acting heartlessly, while the second party, the nephews, are taking all the setbacks with tremendous patience.
