The acclaimed story of the little bird that won the nation's heart

He'll never live, the neighbors all said. But Robert, the abandoned quail chick would prove them wrong. Born on a kitchen counter in a house on Cape Cod, raised in a box surrounded by a lamb's wool duster and a small lamp, Robert's life began auspiciously.

What happens when a wild bird, against all odds, decides he belongs not in the woods, but in a human home?

A Classic Animal Story: Read the charming, unforgettable account of Robert, the quail who was born on a kitchen counter and refused to return to the wild.
The Human-Animal Bond: Discover a unique friendship as Robert becomes a full-fledged member of the family, full of personality, quirks, and affection.
Cape Cod Setting: Experience the gentle backdrop of Cape Cod, where a deserted quail's nest in a garden leads to an incredible new life indoors.
An Unexpected Surprise: Follow Robert's incredible journey, including a shocking discovery that changes everything his adoptive family thought they knew.
