NAME:
Once upon a time there was a mother duck who had five puppies, four of them were the most beautiful, cuddly and yellow ducks you can imagine.
But the fifth one was pink, had a snout and curled tail, he was too big for his age, Mom thought, "I wonder if he's a baby turkey as everyone says."
Mommy Paw took her kids to swimming in the lake. The ducklings jumped right into the water, until the pink one, hurrying him not to swim as well as his brothers, "well that duckling is definitely not a turkey" thought his mother.
The next day it was time for roll call, mommy duck let out a "quac" and all her pups imitated it, but when it was the turn of the pink duck, instead of the "quac", there was a " oinc".
– He's not a duck! – Everyone shouted – He's an ugly pig, and he doesn't belong to us!
And so saying, they chased the little pig away. Tired, hungry and dizzy, the ugly pig wandered for several days in search of a home.
But not a bird paid attention to him.
– Get out of here, you ugly pig! – they shouted as soon as they saw him.
One day the ugly pig came to a farm and saw some pigs, approaching them, he spoke.
– I know I'm an ugly pig, but can I stay here, living with you?
– An ugly pig?! – they exclaimed – You are the most beautiful pig we have ever seen, and from that day forward they lived happily ever after.
