Eleri was determine to catch a Leprechaun this year. She found a box and went to work to make the best Leprechaun trap. She put in shinning pennies and dimes to get his attention. She had a trap door under the tissues that he would fall through while collecting the coins. She made a soft bed for him to land in under the trap door. The trap was well designed.

The Leprechaun’s expression when he falls through the trap door.

The Leprechaun’s surprised look when he sees Eleri in the morning.

She tried to catch him each night up till St. Patrick’s Day on the 17th. She left him notes and chocolate along with more shinny coins.

He would visit her trap every night and take her dimes – he was a tricky fellow! He always managed to escape – there will be next year to try again!
