Lucky Leprechaun! It's (almost) St. Patrick's Day

Here's Lucky.  He's one of Rowan's leprechaun friends. Leprechauns are shoemakers, and they provide the fairies with their dancing shoes.  Since fairies LOVE to dance, leprechauns are always busy. 

Leprechauns love gold and shiny things.  If you capture one, they have to give you their treasure. But, they are mischievous, and love to play tricks. They are very hard to catch! Here are links to learn more about leprechauns:
