A propos du livre

Revue de presse

“Along with BORN FREE and RASCAL, this true story of the little quail that loved people ranks among the great nature tales of all time.” (Boston Globe)

“Robert revealed to those about her (he turned out to be a she) that there is indeed a universal language that all life shares. It is called love.” (Los Angeles Herald Examiner)

“Captivating, charming, incredible, poignant. . . . At the end one has met and come to love a wild, shy, natural denizen of the fields and woods almost as a human friend.” (Nashville Banner)

“Enthralling. ... No one who has had a pet or watched a bird could fail to be enchanted. ... Highly recommended.” (Library Journal)

“A classic” (Christian Science Monitor)

“A delight. ... A beautiful little book illustrated with drawings by Cathy Baldwin.” (Best Sellers)
