The Ugly Duckling

The Ugly Duckling is a story originally written by Hans Christian Andersen, a Danish author.

This story has been adapted here, at storytelling with Ngozi to fit modern times. 

Dodo the main character thought she was the ugliest duckling in the world. That was not true as every other person saw her as beautiful. She was very hard on herself. Would not eat her food for fear of becoming too big. Eventually, she could not face the world around her and decided to run away from those who love her.

She had a difficult time away from her family. And after suffering a cold and lonely winter, she soon realizes she was no ugly duckling but as beautiful as the birds she thought were prettier.

It is a story every little boy should listen to. They must know they are part of our beautiful clusters of flowers that make our entire world awesome.

This week, children are encouraged to look at themselves and write down what makes them awesome.
