Chamlern, our staff artist, has beautifully illustrated the classic Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale about a duckling who is taunted and teased for looking different. For over a century, this timeless story has given heart to children who feel that they don't fit in. Now children in Laos, too, can share the difficult but ultimately triumphant story of the duckling who was different.
by Hans Christian Andersen, illustrated by Chamlern Phothihoumphan
