Duckling gets a cookie? What do you mean DUCKLING GETS A COOKIE?! Pigeon is NOT happy about this. Not one little itty bit.

He has whined, wheedled, fibbed, and hollered his way through many books. He wanted to drive the bus, he demanded a puppy, he pleaded for a hot dog party... But now, in a fantastic new title from Mo Willems, along comes Duckling, with bright twinkling eyes and impeccable manners. She asks for a cookie, and what does she get? A cookie, of course!

The Pigeon is outraged! Incensed! How could this have happened? HOW is it possible that this duckling gets a cookie?! Well, because she asked. Nicely.

The Duckling Gets a Cookie!? is another engaging and entertaining story in Mo Willems' beloved series, capturing the essence of fairness and politeness in a humorous and accessible way.
