Ilustration Concering Books The Ugly Duckling (Mine første eventyr)
For over one hundred years The Ugly Duckling has been a childhood favorite, and Jerry Pinkney's spectacular new adaptation brings it triumphantly to new generations of readers. With keen emotion and fresh vision, the acclaimed artist captures the essence of the tale's timeless appeal: The journey of the awkward little bird -- marching bravely through hecklers, hunters, and cruel seasons -- is an unforgettable survival story; this blooming into a graceful swan is a reminder of the patience often necessary to discover true happiness. Splendid watercolors set in the lush countryside bring drama to life.Rating Appertaining To Books The Ugly Duckling (Mine første eventyr)

The ugly duckling has a pure heart, and I like this story because it also shows us that people we can't imagine, someday can turn their back to us, but if we keep our heart pure, someday we will turn into beautiful creatures. So beautiful we can't imagine!I liked to listen to this audiobook, but I'm not a good listener as I'm am as a reader. Some words and meanings were missing.Favorite Character: The ugly duckling is more special, because he didn't give up!FantasticBeautifully illustrated, classic children's tale, with a moral. One of my favorites as a child. Very short story, suitable for reading as a bedtime story.Originally published in 1843, it's hard to imagine that such a classic children's book is still so easily readable for today's kids; it's values are timeless.
This book was a story of hope for me - I was the ugly duckling when I read this book - I see it as a story about rejection [fear (bondage) expectation] and belonging [love (freedom) becoming] - and the war to stay faithful to ones-self despite the many callings to abandon faith and hope - The swan finally finds his/her true identity and place after a life of opression and struggles with the threat of death - a story of home coming, hope, faith, courage and truth - a favourite ; )
Please read this original tale! For anyone who's had a lonely childhood, this is your book. Very sensitive story-telling by Anderson. A sweet, innocent adventure from loneliness to triumph.
Is there anyone who does not know the the famous fairytale story of The Ugly Duckling? Originally the Danish author, Hans Christian Andersen called it (view spoiler)[ The Young Swans (hide spoiler)], but then decided against giving away the surprise ending, and renamed it The Ugly Duckling (Den grimme ælling). So just in case, I will not spoil the ending either, (although if you read the blurb that might give it away). The Ugly Duckling was first published in 1843, and was an immediate success.
A wonderful story of a duckling facing discrimination just because of her appearance. Emotional and heart-touching. Reading it in my school days, I remember getting tearful over this one.
I have this story on my Andersen's Fairy Tales but I didn't read it because I had bought the short story on Amazon Kindle. Was as good as the others Andersen's tales. A short story about self-acceptance."They are afraid of me because I am ugly," he said
