Like her subsequent Fiona's Luck, in which a clever lass tricks the king of the leprechauns, Teresa Bateman draws upon Irish folklore to create this original tale. I have it on good authority that leprechaun-tales are far more popular with Irish-Americans, than with the Irish themselves, but this engaging tale will undoubtedly appeal to a wide variety of children. The illustrations by Omar Rayyan are done in watercolor, and have numerous references to illuminated manuscripts - decorative capital letters, gorgeous borders - while also resembling some of the fantasy art of Brian Froud, among others.
