On a beautiful summer day, a family of ducks
is taking a swim while another is enjoying

But one duck is sitting on her eggs among
the tall leaves.

I wonder when my babies are going to come
out.

It is so lonely, no one has the time to visit
me.

But Mommy duck didn't have to wait too long.

Soon the eggs started cracking and the little
ducklings started taking small unsteady steps

One..Two..Three..Four…Five..Hey, there should
be one more.

Mother duck looked around, and saw one egg
which had not yet hatched

I think I will have to sit again on this egg
till it hatches.

Soon the last egg hatched, but the duckling
that crept out was large and ugly.

This little fellow doesn't look like his
brothers and sisters.

The next day, Mother Duck leads her brood
to the water.

I am proud today that my ducklings are swimming
so well!

And how well the youngest one is swimming.

We must get to the farm before it turns dark.

The duck family makes its way to the farmhouse,
where there are lots of other ducks.

What is that strange looking creature doing
here?

The other ducklings are so cute but this one
is so big and ugly.

He is still small, and I'm sure he will
grow up to be beautiful too.

But the other ducklings continued to bully
and make fun of the ugly duckling.

I can't bear to see that poor child looking
so sad.

But as days went by, things started becoming
worse for the ugly duckling.

Wherever he went, everyone was mean to him.

Have you ever seen anything uglier than this?

Seeing this creature in the morning, my day
will also be as ugly as he is.

Ha..Ha…he seems to be getting uglier by
the day.

The Ugly Duckling just wanted to hide somewhere
and cry.

Even his brothers and sisters were rude to
him.

Mother Duck was very sad to see everyone treat
the ugly ducking so badly.

Nobody wants to talk to me or play with me
because I am ugly.

So the ugly duckling flew over the fence of
the farmyard, and continued flying till he

Next morning, the ugly duckling woke up to
the sound of loud quacking.

He opened his eyes and saw a flock of wild
ducks.

You are ugly….(a long pause) Stay here,
but don't get in our way.

The Ugly Duckling stayed on the moor for a
few days.

He felt lonely, but no one bullied him or
hurt him because of his looks.

One morning, the duckling heard a noise like
a big bang.

When he finally lifted his head and looked
around, all the other ducks had fled.

The ugly duckling also fled from the moor
as fast as it could.

It flew as fast as its young wings would take
him.

However, suddenly there was thunder and lightning,
scaring the little duckling.

That cottage there looks warm, maybe I can
take shelter there.

The cottage belonged to an old lady, who lived
with with her tomcat and hen, who found the

Looks like a duck, though a very ugly one.

I will keep it with me and wait for it to
lay eggs.

Then I will have eggs from my hen and from
this duck too.

Ah, but I do hope this is a duck and not a
drake.

So the ugly duckling stayed with the old lady
in her cottage.

But here also, the tomcat and the hen made
its life so miserable!

Hey you, don't you get scared when you see
your face in the mirror?

Look at my whiskers, so long and beautiful.

The mistress says my walk is so graceful.

Look at my eggs, such lovely big and brown
ones.

The ugly duckling continued to be lonely.

He would sit in front of the window looking
at the small pond outside.

It used to be so nice when I swam in the cool
water back home.

You have a safe house, what more do you want?

Behave yourself and don't anger the mistress,
the cat, or even me.

The ugly duckling felt very, very sad, wondering
what to do.

I know this place is safe, but I feel like
a prisoner here, being punished by not being
