Quincy the Quail Picture Books

Quincy is a little clumsy, and his topknot falls in front of his eyes, but that doesn’t stop him from taking care of his family. Quincy shares his desert home with children ages 3-7. Both entertaining and educational, every reader discovers interesting facts about the Gambel’s Quail through notations on almost every page. Both books contain animal sounds that can be heard using QR Codes and a QR Code Reader App on a smart phone or other device. Children love to read about Quincy’s adventures and listen to the quail sounds.

Listen to the covey of quail:
