A leprechaun can be alone without being lonely," says Brian O'Shea. And that's how Brian likes it- so when a big human man tries to build a cottage on top of Brian's underground home, the leprechaun does his best to scare the fellow away with his magical tricks. But Sean McDonald refuses to be frightened off- and over time the two develop an unlikely friendship. After all, a leprechaun in the house is a fine piece of luck- and that luck comes in handy when news of Sean's good fortune attracts dangerous attention. Cleverly told and brightly illustrated, this folktale friendship is a delightful tale for St. Patrick's day- or any day when you could use a little magic. | The Leprechaun Under The Bed by Teresa Bateman, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
