A childhood favorite

A delightful little treat for young and old, the story of the ugly little duckling that turns into a swan is a childhood favorite.

the narrator is very shrill and grating.

I found that the narrator was a) too quick, b) too shrill, and generally not great. it was only listenable once I slowed it to 0.5 speed, and even then not great. there are better versions.
