The Ugly Duckling
The Ugly Duckling is the titular protagonist of Disney's 1939 Silly Symphonies short film of the same name. Actually a cygnet (a baby swan), his egg somehow found its way into the nest of a duck family who mistook him for one of their own, and hatched him, only to immediately reject him for not looking the way a duckling should. His namesake book appears in Lilo and Stitch, playing a major role in the film as a source of catharsis for Stitch.read more
