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?

Patrick by Quentin Blake Setting out to buy a violin, Patrick finds that playing it transforms
not only his outlook on life, but the lives of all he meets, be it
plant, animal or human! Dull, everyday things become colourful and fun,
and those who are poor or unhappy are rejuvenated by music's magical
qualities.
Blake's illustrations are inimitable, and his text is perfectly in tune with his style of image, which shows the transformations taking place - colour, stars and fireworks appearing around (and from) the characters and their surroundings. Blake's text and images are readily accessible to small children, filled with spiky movement and quirky action.
