A symbol is something that stands for something else. The leprechaun is one of the main symbols
for St. Patrick's Day.
Let's read together to find out what a leprechaun is.
Now think about and answer the following questions :
1. What does a leprechaun look like?
2. Where does leprechaun live?
3. What does a leprechaun guard?
4. Would you like to meet a leprechaun? Why or Why not?
There is a special place in Ireland that a camera has been put to try to see Leprechauns.
Let's see if you can spot a leprechaun! While you are there you can read about
sightings of leprechauns by other people.

 A leprechaun is small and green
He hides where he cannot be seen.
But if you catch one on this day,
He must give
his gold away.
