The Uglified Ducky: A Maynard Moose Tale by Willy Claflin
In the Northern Piney Woods of Alaska, a baby moose is raised by a family of ducks who try to teach him to waddle, quack, and fly but cannot see his true beauty. (A version of The Ugly Duckling)
This was a cute version of the fairy tale The Ugly Duckling. The language used was a little confusing at first, but then you could really hear Maynard Moose's voice coming out.***
**** I loved this book! It was funny, cute, and the illustrations were awesome. Also, this book is good for all ages. I read it to my little brother in first grade and he loved it.
i liked the book but it was sad for the deer i think. It was sad for the deer because the deer thought he was a ugly duck. I like the ending because he found out he was a deer.
*** I really liked the illustrations. I thought it was really funny that the uglified duckling is a moose. I like how they bandaged his antlers to keep him from falling over.
**** I liked this book. A moose who lived in the woods were raised buy a FAMBLY lol, of ducks. They try to teach the characteristics of a duck but he doesn't know how. Till finally he fines his real family of moose.
I thought this book was really funny. But why would a duck not be abale to tell a moose between a duck? And they didn't say some words right. but I laughed out loud..
This book made me laugh becuse his fambly of ducks thought he was a ugllified duck(but really he was a moose). The docter duck made him hold up a sign that said "QUACK" because he couldn't pronounce the word Quack.But then finally he found his real family and they loved him just the way he was.I loved this creative version of the ugly duckling.
This book was another version of the story, The Ugly Duckling. The book was funny and used a different dialect then what we would normaly use. Oh, and how could Dr. Quack mistake the poor moose for an "uglified" duckling!? I thought it was a good book.
**** I thought this book was adorable! I thought that the book alone was ok,but when accompanied by the cd it was too cute. Can't wait for the 2nd one!
I liked this book because it told the funny story of a poor baby moose being raised by duckies. They called him the uglified ducky. People can learn from this book that everyone is a beautiful something or another, just ask the uglified ducky.
