The Night Before St. Patrick’s Day
It’s the night before St. Patrick’s Day, and Tim and Maureen are wide awake setting traps to catch a leprechaun! When they wake the next morning to the sound of their dad playing the bagpipes and the smell of their mom cooking green eggs, they’re shocked to find that they’ve actually caught a leprechaun. But will they be able to find his pot of gold? Natasha Wing’s sweet story is once again told in verse to the same meter of Clement Moore’s classic.
We love these Night Before books. There are so many and my girls both love them.

After he introduces the legend of the leprechaun, the cubs dream of traveling to a green and pleasant land… When they wake, they’re sitting in their folding chairs on Main Street in Bear Town. and there’s a parade to cheer! The parade includes marching bands and dancers; pipers piping and harpers harping; and the whole Bear Town police and fire departments..
The parade winds up with a troupe of bears dressed as leprechauns, each carrying a pot of gold. Young Berenstain Bears fans will enjoy giggling along as the cubs learn about St. Patrick’s Day.
