Then, one day, all the ducklings are

out of their eggs. They’re pretty!

These are her eggs.
PEEP
There are six eggs.
One egg is very big.
This is Mummy Duck.

PEEP

But what’s this ?

This duckling isn’t yellow.
It’s brown ! It isn’t small.
It’s big !

 The little duckling’s sad.
Ha, ha, ha! You’re ugly!
You aren’t pretty!
You’re an ugly duckling!

SNIFF!
SNIFF!

 Now the duckling is very big.
It isn’t brown. It’s white.
It isn’t ugly now.
It’s pretty!

But ... it isn’t a duckling!
It’s a big, beautiful swan.
Here is the swan’s family.
His mum, his dad and his sister.
