The Ugly Duckling -- Hans Christian Andersen

Born different, the ugly duckling is mocked by his siblings, rejected by other ducks, and even shunned by his own mother. The sad little bird leaves home, starting a journey where he is jeered at and hunted as he struggles to survive on his own-only to discover that the identity he longed for was within him all along.<br><br><b>Author:</b> Hans Christian Andersen<br><b>Publisher:</b> Mineditionus<br><b>Published:</b> 09/01/2016<br><b>Pages:</b> 40<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Hardcover<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.70lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 9.30h x 7.50w x 0.20d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9789888341191<br><b>Audience:</b> Ages 4-8<br><br><b>Review Citation(s): </b><br><i>Hornbook Guide to Children</i> 07/01/2017 pg. 26 - Below Average, With Minor Flaw<br><p><b>About the Author</b><br><p><b>Hans Christian Andersen</b> was born in Denmark.
