  • The Annotations for the Ugly Duckling Fairy Tale Are Below. Sources Have
    The annotations for the Ugly Duckling fairy tale are below. Sources have been cited in parenthetical references, but I have not linked them directly to their full citations which appear on the Ugly Duckling Bibliography page. I have provided links back to the Annotated Ugly Duckling to facilitate referencing between the notes and the tale. Special thanks to Christine Ethier, an adjunct teacher of English writing at both Community College of Philadelphia and Camden County College, for providing the annotations to this tale. Ethier's annotations are designated by CE. Heidi Anne Heiner provided additional annotations designated with HAH. 1. The Ugly Duckling: Considered the most autobiographical of all his tales, Andersen first published "The Ugly Duckling" in 1844 when he was 39 years old. He admitted on many occasions that the tale mirrored his own life. The tale appeared in Nye Eventyr (New Fairy Tales). The collection was critically well-received. HAH The Franks write: It is not only among his most famous stories — the title itself has become part of several languages — but the one that readers correctly identify most closely with its author. Andersen spent his summers with aristocratic friends, going from one castle to the next; in the summer of 1842, at Gisselfeldt Castle, south of Copenhagen, he had been in a bad mood because a new play had done poorly. But he went for a walk, a diary entry notes, and “got the idea for a story about a duck. Improved my mood.” In late July — he was now a guest at the castle of Bregentved — he says, “Began the young swan yesterday” — a hint that the idea had not quite worked itself out (156).

  • The Ugly Duckling by Hans Christian Andersen (1844)
    The Ugly Duckling By Hans Christian Andersen (1844) IT was lovely summer weather in the country, and the golden corn, the green oats, and the haystacks piled up in the meadows looked beautiful. The stork walking about on his long red legs chattered in the Egyptian language, which he had learnt from his mother. The corn-fields and meadows were surrounded by large forests, in the midst of which were deep pools. It was, indeed, delightful to walk about in the country. In a sunny spot stood a pleasant old farm-house close by a deep river, and from the house down to the water side grew great burdock leaves, so high, that under the tallest of them a little child could stand upright. The spot was as wild as the center of a thick wood. In this snug retreat sat a duck on her nest, watching for her young brood to hatch; she was beginning to get tired of her task, for the little ones were a long time coming out of their shells, and she seldom had any visitors. The other ducks liked much better to swim about in the river than to climb the slippery banks, and sit under a burdock leaf, to have a gossip with her. At length one shell cracked, and then another, and from each egg came a living creature that lifted its head and cried, “Peep, peep.” “Quack, quack,” said the mother, and then they all quacked as well as they could, and looked about them on every side at the large green leaves.

  • The Ugly Duckling Script
    The Ugly Duckling By Hans Christian Anderson 1 It was a beautiful day in the country. The sun was shining and the birds were singing. Close by the canal a duck sat on her eggs. She had been sitting on them a long time. One by one the eggs cracked open. “CRACK” … “CRACK” … “CRACK” “How big the world is,” said the ducklings as they waddled around. 2 But one egg remained in the nest. It was very large. “Why is it taking so long?” said the mother duck. “It’s a turkey egg,” said one of her friends. “Leave it. Take the other ducklings away with you.” “Oh I couldn’t. Just a little while longer.” And she sat on the egg. At last, the egg broke, and out tumbled… A very odd looking creature. It was big and grey and ugly. “What a funny looking duckling,” said the mother duck. 1 3 The next day, the mother duck took her children to the canal. To her surprise, the ugly duckling jumped in with all the others, and swam around happily. But back in the fowl yard, the other ducks were not pleased. “What is that?” they asked. “It’s my newest duckling. He is very good. He swims as well as the others – maybe better.” “But my dear, he is so ugly!” They all laughed. 4 Worse than that, some of them pecked at him and called him names. After a few days, even his brothers and sisters turned on him. “Go away,” they hissed, “you ugly duckling.” So the little duckling ran away.
