Book

Leprechaun in Late Winter (2010)

I really loved this book. The thought of Jack and Annie traveling a long time ago in Ireland inspired me to believe in fairies. They met Lady Gregory (a real person), who didn't believe in fairies. At first Lady Gregory thought Jack and Annie were good for nothing. If you read it, you'll find ...

Polar Bears Past Bedtime (2003)

Did I enjoy this book: This is the first “chapter book” that we read to our nearly 3-year-old son. We read it over the course of three nights (bedtime story), and he loves it!
