<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Do you know anyone who is a little clumsy? Maybe they trip on stairs. Or perhaps bump into walls. It happens, but that's nothing to be embarrassed about. Meet Quincy the Quail. He trips over branches and bumps into cacti, but he excels at leading his family around their desert home to hunt for food. His mate, Quella, and chicks love him, help him, and giggle when his topknot falls in front of his eyes. Quincy has an unlikely desert friend who guards the neighborhood. When Quincy finds himself in big trouble, his friend saves his life.</p><p>This book is appropriate for children ages 3-7, but readers of all ages will enjoy learning about helping others, even though they are different.</p><p>Read about the Sonoran Desert in a special section following the story. Download a free QR Code Reader App on a phone or other device and listen to actual animal calls.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Oh my goodness, this book is adorable. I loved Ms. Renner's Lonnie the Loon series so didn't hesitate to read Quincy the Quail. I wasn't disappointed. The writing is crisp, entertaining, and flows off the tongue effortlessly. The pictures are incredibly well done and engaging. What more could you ask from a children's book? AND ... my niece loved it when I read it to her, and let's face it, that's what really matters."</p><p> -Michelle Lynn</p><p>"This is our daughter's favorite book! She loves Quincy because 'he's always doing silly things.' We love all the Quincy & Lonnie books by Barbara Renner."</p><p> -Nicole Taylor</p><p>I loved the unique characters and setting of this cute story, and the illustrations are a delight! Quincy the Quail leads his family on an adventure in the desert and is helped by Mr. Owl to navigate the grounds when his clumsiness gets the better of him. The story is both entertaining and educational, and the author did a great job in adding footnotes with interesting facts about quails and owls, and QR codes that allow children to hear the birds' calls. Such a winner for kids of all ages, not to mention keen birders.</p><p> -Denisa Oosthuizen</p><p>Interesting read for young age children. This book had lots of interesting facts that I didn't know about quails. This would be a perfect read for a school project about quails since it offered so much information. Also, the illustrations were lovely.</p><p> -Cynthia Wilson</p><br>
