What happens when the Ugly Duckling has had enough of being teased?
Get ready for the real tale-the one no one has ever told-about how he discovers that you don’t have to be perfect to be loved.
Everyone remembers the classic story: the lonely duckling, the constant teasing, and the long journey that ends in a beautiful transformation.
But no one knows what truly happened before he became a swan-until now.
In this hilarious and heart-warming retelling, the Ugly Duckling finally speaks for himself.
Fed up with being mocked, he turns to his own author for help... and it sets off a chain of wonderfully unexpected events.
(Yes-wonky, surprising, and absolutely nothing like the stories you’ve heard.) This beautifully written tale reveals the secret chapter of his life: the moment when he entered a hidden place and made a discovery that changed everything he believed about himself.
Filled with laughter, tenderness, and a touching lesson about self-love, this story shows young readers that courage begins not when we become perfect-but when we learn to be kind to who we already are.
Featuring 38 vibrant illustrations, many of them double-page spreads, and a reader-friendly layout ideal for children-including those who struggle with reading-this magical adventure is perfect for reading aloud and sharing together.
The Ugly Duckling And the missing hat is the third book in the Wonky Tales series, exploring one of the most important emotional skills for every growing child: learning to love oneself. An unforgettable bedtime adventure for children aged 6-8 (and for every grown-up who believes that real magic starts on the inside). Includes two bonus mini-stories and a free sample of the audiobook at the end of the book.
