The Ugly Duckling jumped in and started to paddle, too. “I can swim, Mother!” Said the Ugly Duckling. He was proud.
After swimming, the yellow ducklings started to play.
They jumped and splashed in muddy puddles.
They shook their muddy wings and they laughed and laughed.
The Ugly Duckling tried to play with his brothers and sisters, too.
“I can jump and shake my wings!” Exclaimed the Ugly Duckling. He was so happy.
But, the yellow ducklings yelled, “Go away!”
The Ugly Duckling walked with his head down. He was sad.
The Ugly Duckling went to his mum and said, “Mom, they don’t want to play with me. Am I too ugly?”
“You’re different. You are not yellow but gray and brave.” Mother Duck tried to calm him down.
But, he was not very pleased to hear it.
