Download or read book Ugly written by Robert Hoge and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2016-09-06 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A funny, moving, and true story of an ordinary boy with an extraordinary face that's perfect for fans of Wonder—now available in the U.S. When Robert Hoge was born, he had a tumor the size of a tennis ball in the middle of his face and short, twisted legs. Surgeons removed the tumor and made him a new nose from one of his toes. Amazingly, he survived—with a face that would never be the same. Strangers stared at him. Kids called him names, and adults could be cruel, too. Everybody seemed to agree that he was “ugly.” But Robert refused to let his face define him. He played pranks, got into trouble, had adventures with his big family, and finally found a sport that was perfect for him to play. And Robert came face to face with the biggest decision of his life, he followed his heart. This poignant memoir about overcoming bullying and thriving with disabilities shows that what makes us “ugly” also makes us who we are. It features a reflective foil cover and black-and-white illustrations throughout.

Book excerpt: Ugly just isn’t like the other ducklings in the clutch. His neck is too long. He stays underwater for “too many” seconds. He keeps climbing onto Mother’s back whenever he’s afraid. When all the other ducks of Dove Lake turn against him, Ugly’s mother has no choice but to protect her family and leave her darling Ugly behind. Armed with only his natural curiosity and a few good pieces of advice, the ugly duckling must find his way home. Luckily, the friendship of a few wonderful animals in the Tasmanian outback—a boxing wallaby, two brave geese, a maternal wombat, and a spunky possum—makes his journey a lot easier. But what exactly is Ugly trying to find? By setting this story in Tasmania, Donna Jo Napoli turns expectations on their heads and gives readers a fresh look at this classic tale of finding one’s identity.
