When Mama Duck heard a crack, she was excited to see her ducklings hatch from their eggs. But one little duckling did not look like the others. She said, “Your feathers are not yellow, but brown. I will call you my little Ugly Duckling.” The poor Ugly Duckling was teased by the other ducks and animals that lived by the pond. Then after a long winter, the Ugly Duckling grew and grew, and his brown feathers turned as white as snow. In fact, the Ugly Duckling grew into the most beautiful creature in the pond. An endearing and happy ending will have kids and parents enjoying this classic tale over and over again.
