The Leprechaun's Gold

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Henry Cole. Humble Old Pat and boastful Young Tom travel to compete for the title of "Finest Harpist in Ireland." Along the way, Young Tom tries to sabotage Old Pat's chances to win, but Old Pat's kindness toward a leprechaun is rewarded and Young Tom gets what he deserves. The just ending is never in doubt in this story of kindness rewarded. The lively illustrations aptly convey the Irish setting.
