Disclaimer! This is one of Roald Dahl's more dark and disturbing stories. You may find it upsetting, so listen with caution.
"The Swan" is a short story about the boys Ernie and his friend Raymond, who like to bully Peter Watson. When Ernie receives a rifle for his fifteenth birthday, they both shoot birds on their way to the rabbit field. They soon come across Peter Watson and bully him terribly. First by tying him to the railway tracks, and later by sending him to get the birds that they have shot. The story builds to a horrible climax where Ernie shoots a swan and does something disturbing with its corpse.
