The Ugly Duckling by Jonathan Langley

Once upon a time, a mother duck hatched seven eggs. The ducklings were pretty and yellow except the last one who was big, grey and scruffy. Tired of being teased, the ugly duckling ran out of the farm yard and away across the fields! In re-telling this familiar and well-loved tale, Jonathan Langley manages to remain faithful to tradition while investing both words and pictures with wit and exuberance.

Jonathan Langley was born in Lancaster in 1952. He studied graphic design and illustration at Liverpool College of Art and the Central School of Art and Design. He also studied bookbinding at Camberwell School of Art. In 1974 he became a freelance illustrator, working in publishing, editorial, advertising and design. Jonathan has illustrated numerous books for children. He lives in the English Lake District with his wife and three children.
