The Scary Swamp is a children's book about a duck named Donna who makes assumptions about two creatures - an alligator named Armando and an eel named Eegore - based on their appearance. Donna is initially scared of Armando and barely takes notice of Eegore, but she soon finds herself in danger when Eegore lunges for her. Fortunately, Armando saves her in the nick of time. The story aims to teach children that assumptions based on appearances can often lead to wrong conclusions and that it is important to take the time to get to know people before making any assumptions. The moral of the story is that assumptions can lead one astray and that it is important to look deeper than appearances to avoid making false assumptions.
