Jamie seeks a way to prove that he is not too young to march in the big St. Patrick's Day parade.

A children's book that tells the story of the naughty Leprechaun that comes to visit an Irish-American family every Saint Patrick's Day and the damage he causes when the children try to trap him and get his gold. Go to www.theleprechauntrap.com to send us pictures and video of your family's experience of trying to catch a Leprechaun on Saint Patrick's Day.
This beautifully illustrated storybook dictionary explains 26 Irish traditions.
Count along with the forest friends in this shimmery board book! Five bright green holographic shamrock tabs and fun rhyming text make this a St. Patrick’s Day treat!
The story begins with the traditional symbols of the day that are often found in schoolrooms, such as shamrocks, harps, and leprechauns. Then the narrative moves to a short biography of Saint Patrick himself: as a shepherd, as a missionary, and as a teacher. This colorfull boardbook ties together the live of Patrick with the traditional images of Ireland.
It's the night before St. Patrick's Day, and Tim and Maureen are wide awake setting traps to catch a leprechaun! When they wake the next morning to the sound of their dad playing the bagpipes and the smell of their mom cooking green eggs, they? re shocked to find that they've actually caught a leprechaun. But will they be able to find his pot of gold? Natasha Wing's latest title is once again told in verse to the same meter of Clement Moore's classic.
I hope you and your kids have fun learning about Saint Patrick’s Day!
