It is very sad that I know this, but the book Alex and Emily are reading to their (respective) daughters is part of the pigeon series. The Duckling has a cookie which the Pigeon loses his shit about (why doesn't he have a cookie? He wants a damn cookie. WITH NUTS) and in the end Duckling tells him, "I got the cookie for you!" and the Pigeon is super thrilled but because he has, like, Asperger's or something he doesn't feel like a douche for having treated the Duckling like shit, not that it matters because the Duckling is totally a manipulative sociopath and gets another cookie for himself WITHOUT NUTS.
I hope that answers your question. I really need to have a kid, I swear to god.
P.S. If you want to read more about Beatrice's love affair with the pigeon, go here (http://cmrossiprentiss.livejournal.com/94059.html#comments).
