This children's tale shows that people, or leprechauns, need to pull together if they are to succeed.Paudie is a teeny-tiny 10-year-old leprechaun who lived over 200 years ago in Ireland. All the local leprechauns have magical powers given them by Paudie's grandfather, King Bill.Late one foggy night, an invasion force led by an evil pirate called Tolu sails into King Reginald's bay, with the aim of looting King Reginald's castle of all its treasures. Thanks to Paudie's quick thinking, the leprechaun villagers reach safety in the castle just in time. Tolu is furious when he finds his plot has failed, so he places the castle under siege to starve everyone into submission.Secretly hidden on the invasion ships are a large force of evil leprechauns, bent on looting and enslaving their fellow leprechauns. Paudie must unite all the local communities to help fight in the upcoming battle. Nicholas D. Power works as a registered nurse in Waterford, Ireland.
