The Ugly Duckling And New Friend

One upon time, a mother duck sat on her eggs. She felt tired of sitting on them. She just wished the eggs
would break out. Several days later, she got her wish. The eggs cracked and some cute little ducklings
appeared. “Peep, peep” the little ducklings cried. “Quack, quack” their mother greeted in return.However
the largest egg had not cracked. The mother duck sat on it for several days. Finally, it cracked and a huge
ugly duckling waddled out. The mother duck looked at him in surprise. He was so big and very gray. He
didn’t look like the others at all. He was like a turkey.
When the mother duck brought the children to the pond for their first swimming lesson. The huge grey
duckling splashed and paddled about just as nicely as the other ducklings did. “That is not a turkey chick.
He is my very own son and quite handsome” the mother said proudly. However, the other animals didn’t
agree. They hissed and made fun of him day by day. Even his own sisters and brothers were very unkind.
“You are very ugly” they quacked. The little poor duckling was very unhappy. “I wish I looked like them”
he thought to himself. One day, the ugly duckling run away and hid in the bushes. The sad duckling lived
alone through the cold and snow winter.
Finally the spring flowers began to bloom. While he was swimming in the pond, he saw three large white
swans swimming toward him. “Oh, dear. these beautiful birds will laugh and peck me too” he said to
himself. But the swans did not attack him. Instead, they swam around him and stroked him with their bills.
As the ugly duckling bent his neck to speak to them, he saw his reflection in the water. He could not believe
his eyes. “I am not an ugly duckling but a beautiful swam” he exclaimed.
He was very happy. From that day on, he swam and played with his new friends and was happier than he
had never been.
