The ugly duckling runs away from the farm. He runs away from men with guns and dogs to an old hut. He hasn't got any eggs, so he must go. In the winter he's cold and he can't swim. Poor ugly duckling! Nobody likes him. In the spring he flies down to a river and sees his face in the water. He's not an ugly duckling any more!
