How to Catch a Leprechaun
Written by Adam Wallace, Illustrated by Andy Elkerton
Modern Fantasy
St. Patrick’s Day is coming up so what do you have to do?
Catch a leprechaun of course. This book tells you what to
do!
You plan and plan then set the trap
Wait and wait, don’t take a nap!
“How to Catch a Leprechaun” is just your guide
But he may be sneaky and try to hide
If the trap doesn’t work then try another time
To catch that little man that is green as a lime
If you’re wondering how to catch him now
Read this book and find out how!
The illustrations in this book are very vibrant and bright.
They make the pictures just pop off the pages. They pictures are amazing with
detail and color rich illustrations. I love how the pictures capture the
mischief of the sneaky little leprechaun.
I think this book would support a STEAM lesson really well
in 2nd-3rd grades. It would be fun to have students plan,
design, and construct a trap to catch a leprechaun. They could experiment to
see if it actually works.
For a Gifted Learner
you could have them write their own plan to catch a leprechaun with rhyming
words, since this book is written in rhyme. They could also write a letter as the leprechaun giving hints on how to catch him.
