I love the illustrations.  They are absolutely charming and sweet, but I’m afraid the story doesn’t match up.  It’s a rather long, babbling story about a housewife quail and her day with her seven chicks, hiding under a bush to stay cool, preparing for a picnic, visiting their aunt, taking a bath, and going to bed.  For some unknown reason the text occasionally changes color, but there doesn’t seem to be any discernible pattern as to why.  There’s just nothing about it to make the reader care about what the quails are up to.
