Description

For 2 century, Hans Christian Andersen's The Ugly-Duckling is a childhood favorite all around the globe. Today Robert Ingpen provides his magnificent version to new generations of visitors. Created larger and diverse from the other hatchlings, the ugly-duckling is declined by the other geese, ridiculed by his sisters and friends, and ultimately shunned by their own mom. His home is left by the little bird, starting on the journey through predators, hecklers, and vicious months -simply to realize that the wonder he was seeking was inside him all along.
