The Ugly Duckling

Today I read The Ugly Duckling, a book in Primary Classic Readers series. It was written by Jennifer Health.

' Come on, ducklings. Let's go and visit the hen, ' says mother duck. Shw looks at the ugly duckling and she says, ' Walk behind your brothers and sisters. I don't want anybody to see you. you're ugly! '(p.4)

I was disappointed at the mother duck. If one of her ducks have unique characteristic, she has to bring him up, I think. At the end, he became a beautiful swan and I felt  at ease.
