Answer: “The Remarkable Rocket” is a philosophical take on self-importance because the Rocket has a narcissist mentality and mistakes sympathy with selfishness.
Explanation: The story tells the conversation between various types of fireworks, while they perform for the prince and the princess. Although the majority of the fireworks are friendly, the Rocket is not. He starts a monologue about how everyone has to adore him in order to have sympathy in their hearts and to avoid being disrespectful. He is so immersed in his wrong thoughts, that he has become over-sensitive and gets offended by everything, having then a philosophy of self-importance, and not seeing the reality of values.
