- Abstract
- en_US This version of the age-old story is true to my childhood memories. The ugly duckling in this version has to go through a number of rejection experiences. One hint to the bird's identity comes when he sees a flock of swans fly overhead and finds them the most beautiful thing he has ever seen. The first final revelation comes when he flaps his wings and finds himself flying. The second is when he is not rejected by swans. The clincher comes when he looks at himself in the mirrorlike water.
