Sean O'Reilly is a wee Irishman who loves just three things-sleeping, two Irish ngers of liquid refreshment, and telling tales about the adventures of Sean and 'Himself, ' an eight-inch-tall leprechaun with an infectious grin and amicable nature that hide his cunning and crafty side. After Sean captures 'Himself, ' he soon realizes he just needs one thing to make his life complete-the pot of gold the tiny leprechaun possesses.
Like Sean, 'Himself' loves to natter over times that were, are, and have yet to be, but of all the wee folk, 'Himself' is the most industrious as he toils making fairy shoes. The gold he receives is stored in a large crock-a vessel that every mortal is after, including Sean. For centuries, mankind has coveted the gold, and each time, 'Himself' has bested the mortal men. Known for his sneaky ways and vivid imagination, 'Himself' is not about to give up easily and will ght tooth and nail to keep his treasure.
As Sean and 'Himself' embark on one unforgettable journey after another, a friendship between two adversaries comes alive, bringing each more joy than they ever could have imagined."
