Jack and the Leprechaun

Ivy just loves Jack and the Leprechaun by Ivan Robertson.  Jack the mouse sails to Ireland to celebrate St. Patrick's day with his cousin Sean and his family.  He is sent into the woods to pick shamrocks for the party.  There he hears a mysterious "Tee-hee-hee Toe-ee-ee" and sees Liam the leprechaun.  If Jack is able to catch Liam he will win his pot of gold.  I had to read this story seven times in a row last weekend.  I was surprised at the amount of actual facts about St. Patrick's Day and the celebrations surround it.
