The Ugly Duckling gives off the most important message of any children's book: no matter what other people think, you are beautiful. This is a message any child needs to hear. In the book, one duckling looks different than all the rest, so it is made fun of. The duckling starts to believe that their is something wrong with it, and that it is ugly. While growing up the duckling becomes even more different from the others. As it transforms, it starts to get more and more down on itself. It is not until the end when the duck realizes that being different can be a good thing, and everyone grows into something different. This is a very valuable lesson for every child growing up. The ugly duckling the title itself creates an interest among the children to read and find out the reason of why the duckling is called as an ugly duckling. The story narrated in such a way how every human being is worried about their disadvantages in life. Ending of the story is very positive which gives confidence to the children.I hope children will enjoy it. It is more suitable for Key stage 1 children. It can be recommended for a guided learning because it will be difficult for the children to understand the inner core meaning of the story. My opinion about the story is, that it could have been narrated in a simpler way.
