Once upon a time lived a duck family, and Mother Duck had been sitting on a clutch of new eggs. One nice morning, the eggs hatched six ducklings. But one egg was bigger than the rest, and it didn't hatch. The little prisoner was pecking inside his shell. A strange looking duckling with grey feathers that should have been yellow gazed at a worried mother. A little duckling was very sad because he thought he was the ugliest amongst all his brothers and sisters. One day, he saw his reflection in the water and cried, "Nobody likes me. I am so ugly." He decided to leave home and went far away into the woods.
It's been a long time. When he saw his own reflection in the water but a handsome young swan! Now, he knew why he had looked so different from his brothers and sisters. "They were ducklings but I was a baby swan!" he said to himself.

Минуло багато часу. Коли качення побачило у воді своє власне відображення, то це було гарним молодим лебідем! Тепер він знав, чому він виглядав настільки відрізняється від своїх братів і сестер. "Вони були каченятами, але я був лебедям!" - сказав він собі.
