Reading Level L · Lexile AD500L · ATOS 1.9

On a dark night just before St. Patrick's Day, a cheeky leprechaun taps a hammer, pulls out laces, sprinkles glitter and turns a toilet green. Then the leprechaun goes from house to house, where children have set traps: a shoebox on a stick, nuts left as bait, dandelion tea, a clever iron cage and more. A rhyming romp told in the leprechaun's own voice, with busy pictures full of gold coins and kid-built inventions.
