What was Hardy's favorite book to read to Daisy as a child? Also does he find this book lying around his little blue shack when Ellie brings Fred around and he can't help but pick it up and leaf through the pages, a slightly wistful smile on his face? And Fred sees him holding the book and tugs a little on his pant leg, hoping Uncle Alec will read it to him?

His to read to her was The Paper Bag Princess.  Hers for him to read to her was Winnie the Pooh (because he would try and do voices for all the characters, and she loved a Scottish, bumbling Pooh Bear).

He doesn’t find either of those, but he does find Where The Wild Things are and is curious about it.  He picks it up, sits on the couch, and flips through it (this can’t possibly be a children’s book).  Fred notices and climbs on the couch next to him.  Hardy doesn’t notice until he’s moved right up next to him, leaning over to try and see the pictures.  Fred looks up at him with expectant eyes, then back down at the page.  Hardy starts reading the words out loud, quietly (he was reading it anyways).  Fred snuggles up closer to see the pictures.  Hardy starts to get more into the story, his voice growing more animated, causing Fred to giggle.  He puts on a monster voice (which Fred loves).  

Meanwhile Ellie watches from the doorway not daring to make a sound disturbing them.
