The Ugly Duckling

"You are ugly. Go away!"

Once upon a time, five eggs hatched. Out popped five little duckling. Four were fluffy and cute. One was gray and ugly. The cute ducks were mean to their ugly brother. He was bullied all the kind of animals. However, he grew into a beautiful swan like others. And the once ugly duckling lived happily ever after. And he was always kind to all the living things. I thought that those who have undergone many hardships can understand others' feelings.

Vocabulary
・fluffy: ふわふわした、うぶ毛のような
・ever after: それ以降ずっと(過去時制で)
