Are leprechauns real? In the new children’s adventure, Hillary and the Leprechauns, Hillary the Little Ladybug happens upon not one, but a whole gathering of leprechauns!
Co-authored by William Dandurand, Elisabeth Revel and Mary Cohen, The Adventures of Hillary the Little Ladybug series explores climate change and other topics through stories aimed at young readers.
In the latest story, Hillary spots a leprechaun and follows him into the hollow of a tree. She discovers a whole world where the leprechauns live, but soon she isn’t sure if she can get back home.
The leprechauns accuse Hillary of coming to steal their pot of gold, while she tries to explain that she’s just lost. In the meantime, Tiny Tim starts to worry about where his friend has gone. So he embarks on a journey to find Hillary. But can they both make it back home safely?
The series features original illustrations, photography and playfully educational storylines to tell adventurous children’s tales from the perspective of a precocious ladybug.
A team of authors and illustrators have collaborated on this 17-book series, including Mary Cohen, Elisabeth Revel, Gary Revel, Naomi Kibe and William Dandurand, whose grandfather, Ray Lowe, worked for Disney. All proceeds from sales of the “Ladybug” books benefit Mother Nature Festival Live Inc., which endeavors to stop harmful climate change.
In previous episodes of the Hillary the Ladybug saga, our heroine has solved the mystery of the secret cave, joined the crew on a submarine, faced giant sharks, encountered a haunted castle, dealt with a family vacation gone wrong, and in this new book, discovers that leprechauns aren’t just mythical creatures.
