Follow the adventures of Michael O'Hara, a leprechaun who has just retired from years of being a cobbler of fairy shoes. Travel in a blink, flit or a swoop from shaded Irish glens to sunny gardens in Southern California. Join the whimsical characters as they partake of tea breaks in lush counties or frolic to the bustle of Irish jigs. In The Retirement of Michael O'Hara you will see that there's no end to the magic and mischief that leprechauns can do. This picture book is woven in the tradition of well-loved fairy tales but is seasoned with a distinct spunk that makes it a contemporary treat. The rich medley of delightful storytelling and vibrant illustrations makes for a fun and enchanting reading experience.
