The little duckling is sad, because he just read "the ugly duckling". He cries because the duck looks just like him. Jerry hears him crying and tries to make him feel better. But no matter what, the duck thinks he looks ugly.
Le petit canard est triste, parce qu’il vient de lire « le vilain petit canard ». Il pleure parce que le canard lui ressemble. Jerry l’entend pleurer et essaie de le faire se sentir mieux. Mais quoi qu’il arrive, le canard pense qu’il a l’air moche.
