a long time. After a while， one by one， ducklings come out.

Ducklings： Peep， peep ...

Mother duck： Quack， quack！ Are you all out？

Duckling 1： No， one egg is still here. Look， how big it is！

Mother duck： Oh， my god！ The big egg opens. This duckling is so big， and ugly. Is it a turkey？

Frog： I cant believe！

Fish： Never mind. Who cares！

Mother duck： Lets go into the water. Follow me， babies！

Ducklings： OK. Lets go.

Mother duck： Heres the pond. Jump into the water.

Other animals： Jump， jump.

Duckling 1： Oh， Im scared.

Duckling 2： Im scared， too.

Ugly duckling： Oh， no one wants me. Even the dog doesnt want to eat me. Im so sad.

Narrator： The poor duckling runs away. And a storm comes. Where should she go？
