Excellent book for 2nd graders

Leprechaun in Late Winter was an awesome book. I am in 2nd grade and love reading Magic Tree House books. I learned a lot about Ireland and leprechauns. This book would make a great St. Patrick's Day gift!

Magic Tree House #43: Leprechaun in Late Winter

Lady Augusta Gregory is a well-known Irish folklorist. During her happy childhood, her family had a very special nurse, Mary Sheridan, who told her Irish folktale nightly. Lady Augusta Gregory once said that Mary Sheridan held the whole library of Irish folklore in her head. Jack and Annie were sent on a mission by Merlin the magician, to find an imaginative and creative girl named Augusta. However, it was not as Jack and Annie expected when they met Miss Augusta. She was totally un-imaginative and un-creative girl they ever met. Actually, their mission was not only to find Augusta, but also to inspire her, so she could explore her hidden talents and became her gifts to the world. Through their adventure to accomplish the mission, Jack and Annie were led into fairy's realm. In this late winter, Leprechaun Willy may be roaming trying to interfere with our human world. Don't miss out!! Whatever you are doing, Leprechaun Willy may be right in front of or right behind you. Whether your children are as adventurous as Jack and Annie, or as then un-imaginative as Augusta, or as mischievous as Willy, they deserve this book as a special treat.
