Description:
This is the 1994 Turkish edition of The Ugly Duckling (Çirkin Ördek Yavrusu) by Hans Christian Andersen, published by Mini Çocuk Yayınları. The story is part of Andersen's Fairy Tales and is one of his most famous and enduring tales. It follows a young bird who is rejected and ridiculed by those around him because he looks different from the other ducklings, leading him on a difficult journey in search of acceptance and a place where he truly belongs.
