Summary:

In Make way for ducklings, a family of ducks are looking for a home in Boston. In The story about Ping, a young duckling gets separated from his family. In The ugly duckling, a swan is raised by a loving duck mother, but endures teasing for his awkward, un-ducklike appearance. In Angus and the ducks, a live action film with narration, a puppy investigates what's making so much noise. In Cat and Canary, the unlikely friends have a great time when their owner is away. In Wings, Winnie the chicken unwittingly goes on a balloon ride with a sly fox and her friend Harriet must rescue her.
