Review Quotes

"A joy-filled adventure that's sure to delight both kids and adults." -Kirkus

"...the narrative maintains a sense of lightness and fun, imbuing everything the kids do with a sense of wonder." -Kirkus

"Bryant (author of Santa's Holiday Mix-Up) weaves a lively story with plenty of fun twists and turns, from leprechauns and their pots of gold to whimsical tooth fairies flitting about a strange new land. Amid all the excitement, important lessons abound-including the value of setting a goal and working together with others to accomplish it. Imani, Chase, and Kayla are an ideal team, easily cooperating and cheering each other on, and that camaraderie and kindness spell big rewards for the trio. Lucky plays a role in their good fortune as well, and their teamwork ensures their return to Holidayville with special memories of new friends, experiences, and, of course, the shiny golden egg. The bright, buoyant illustrations by Sandra Figueras capture the magic surrounding beloved holiday traditions, evoking Holidayville's bubbly town spirit at every turn as well as the sparkling charm of Leprechaun Land. Leaving young readers with the uplifting idea that "everything is possible," Bryant showcases the wonder and beauty that can be found in the world and within one's own town, proving that a cheerful attitude-and a little luck-goes a long way." - BookLife
