Produktbeschreibung

The Christmas Leprechaun The week before Christmas, eight cousins set out to find the perfect tree for their grandfather. Deep in the evergreens, they stumble upon something extraordinary - a grouchy little leprechaun who has lost his way and doesn't understand what Christmas is all about. With laughter, imagination, and a touch of holiday magic, the children help him discover the true spirit of the season: sharing, joy, and love that lasts far beyond the holidays. First created in 1993 as a handmade family gift, The Christmas Leprechaun returns in this newly colorized edition - a festive story that blends Irish charm, Christmas wonder, and the warmth of family traditions. A story to treasure, read aloud, and pass on from one generation to the next.

Autorenporträt

Querida grew up in Monroe, Wisconsin (USA). She learned to draw from her mother who was an accomplished landscape artist and began selling portraits while still a teenager. She turned to cartooning as a college student and wrote home in comic strip format with "The Adventures of Jacky and Sir" using the family dogs as a substitute for her adventures. While home on break, she created pen and watercolor fashion plates for a local boutique in Monroe, Wisconsin. After college, she became known as "Sally," the pen-named political cartoonist of Two Cents Worth, for the Wisconsin Counties Magazine. Her first picture book was "The Christmas Leprechaun", written as a Christmas present for her father-in-law and his grandchildren. Years later she would study with Caldecott Medal Winner David McLiman, and venture into creating stories and books for her own grandchildren.
