∙ 10y agoThe main problem with the Ugly Duckling story is that the other ducks, who judged the 'duckling', can only be shown to be wrong when the 'duckling' becomes more attractive aesthetically. I'd say maybe the duckling should stay ugly and become appreciated for it's personality, as the former is not a great message to teach kids; 'Don't judge a book by it's cover, because it's cover may change for the better' isn't really a great moral.
The ugly duckling was actually a cygnet, which is a young swan. The story follows the cygnet as it grows up and transforms into a beautiful swan.
