Title
How the Quail Earned His Topknot - Hardcover
by Richard Oldenburg (Author)
A young quail named Quincy loves running so much that he's never even tried to fly. All the other quail tease him and think he's strange. Tired of being made fun of, Quincy decides it's time to learn to fly. The quail enters a contest, and is set to race against a fast road runner bird. Will his running skills come in handy? Has he had enough practice flying so that he can win the race? This insightful, fun story teaches children to value each other's differences. Inspired by his observations of nature at work and play, Richard W. Oldenburg introduces us to Quincy. In this wonderful collaboration with illustrator Elizabeth Lauder, Quincy, a quail who prefers to run rather than fly, brings life lessons to child and parent alike. ...All too often, children are encouraged to excel in and to practice things in which they do better during their lives ...spending time on their strengths, they grow up with a fear of failure rather than a desire to challenge themselves. Oldenburg brings a humorous, charming, and necessary lesson for children in this irreverently illustrated and written romp through the outdoors, as a quail learns to seize the day. - Todd Rutherford, The Publishing Guru
