Sydney
Sydney the duck is well known among all birds for her helpful attitude, her friendly spirit, and her willingness to lend a hand. Oh yes, and the very large bump on her beam. When a gaggle of mean-spirited goslings makes Sydney feel ashamed about the way she looks, her confidence is shattered.
After a journey including a vain swan, a helpful older duck, and all kinds of other feathered and furred critters, Sydney learns that being just like all the other ducks isn’t all that important, and that the best thing to be is a good friend.
This charming, affirming story in rhyme takes the age-old take of “The Ugly Ducking” and flips it on its head to provide a new message: what you look like will never matter more than who you are.

A great book for the little ones in your life! Sydney teaches us to embrace our whole self and love us for who we are, despite others trying to tear us down. A great re-imagining of “The Ugly Duckling,” teaching us that looks are never as important as it is to be a good person.
