Summary "The Tale of Jolly Robin" by Arthur Scott Bailey is a children's storybook written in the early 20th century. This engaging tale follows the adventures of Jolly Robin, a young bird who learns to fly, finds food, and discovers the joys and challenges of life in the wild. The narrative emphasizes themes such as growing up, friendship, and the importance of laughter. In the story, Jolly Robin begins his life as a nestling with his siblings in Farmer Green's orchard. As he grows, he learns essential skills under the guidance of his parents, particularly focusing on flying and finding food. Throughout his journeys, Jolly encounters various other animals, including Jasper Jay, old Mr. Crow, and the shy Hermit Thrush. His character is marked by his cheery disposition and a knack for making others laugh, leading him to ponder how he might make a vocation out of laughter itself. Ultimately, Jolly Robin navigates a series of delightful and sometimes humorous experiences, from playful encounters with friends to humorous misunderstandings, representing the journey of youth filled with curiosity and adventure.
