HE UGLY DUCKLING

In a farm in the forest mummy duck incubates her eggs. Later, one after another, the eggs began to break.

- Cuac, cuac! - say the ducklings.

- Cuac, cuac! - replies their mum.

But the bigger egg doesn't break, and mum duck is worried. The day when the egg begins to break, a smiling duckling appears.

- Oooooh! - exclaims the hen-. What a big and ugly duck! He doesn't seem your brother.

Then mummy duck says:

-Yes, he is bigger than his brothers, but is very endearing and I love him the same.

In the farm, nobody want to play with him.

Later, he leaves the farm and, after walking for several days, he arrives a house were one granny lives with a very jealous cock. He didn't stop to bother the duck

so he went away. When the night came, he didn't sleep, because it was very cold. When the dawn came, the squirrel and the rabbit said: - In the pond there are animals like you.

The duck appears there and tells the cobs:

- Hello! Can stay with you?

- Yes – they reply.

The duck looks in the water and check the image. He was a cob.

He wasn't alone never more!
