Book Summary

Bradley, Brian, Nate, and Lucy are visiting their Aunt Lucy in Maine during March. They are excited for St. Patrick's Day and decide to set a leprechaun trap. To their surprise, they find a tiny green hat and a gold coin in the trap, leading them to believe they've caught a real leprechaun! They spend the next few days trying to catch the elusive leprechaun, following green footprints and setting more elaborate traps, only to discover that their Aunt Lucy has been playing a fun St. Patrick's Day trick on them all along.
