A few of the little fellows have turned up in America, though. How? This delightful follow-up story to Lucky O'Leprechaun ($14.95) gives one explanation. Uncle Patrick O'Brien has been taking care of his three wee grandnieces since their parents immigrated to America. It's time for the girls to join them, and Uncle Paddy offers them his most valuable possession -- a mysterious box filled with ancient Irish treasure! The girls insist that he keep the treasure for himself, but their uncle, and a certain sneaky little leprechaun, have other plans. |
