Title: Lucky O'Leprechaun by Jana Dillon ISBN: 1-56554-333-5 Publisher: Pelican Pub Co Pub. Date: September, 1998 Format: Hardcover Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $15.95 |
Average Customer Rating: 4 (2 reviews)
Rating: 3
Summary: Some Better, Some Worse
Comment: First-rate illustrations are the best feature of this book. The story is entertaining but can be long for 4 and 5 year-olds.
The story faults, in that it employs too many characters with no character development, which adds unnecessary confusion and clutter to the story. There is a little boy (Sean) and girl (Meghan), three very old ladies (the children's aunties), and a leprechaun exchanging dialogue in the same 1 or 2 pages, at different points throughout the book.
As a parent reading to a child, who wants to present a different voice for each character so that the child can easliy identify who is speaking in the story, there are too many characters talking, but with no distinguishing personalities to make understanding easier.
However, the story is somewhat entertaining despite its flaws.
Rating: 5
Summary: Terrific "read-aloud" with great characters
Comment: We really enjoyed this book and recommend it to all people, especially the Irish and people who love the mythology of the "Wee Folk"! The faces are wondefully drawn and kids will love the ingenuity of the children in the book. A magical delight people the world over should love!
