Free
Join Book People for a St Patrick’s Day Storytime on Saturday, March 15th from 11am to 1 pm as Jenny Olson reads her book Lia the Leprechaun.
When a young leprechaun gets tired of wearing green and tries on a colorful fairy dress instead, she learns that true joy in life comes from embracing who you are and sharing your magic to help others.
What happens when an adventurous young leprechaun girl gets tired of wearing nothing but green every day of her life? Lia and her family are leprechauns—which means they all wear green to hide from humans who might steal their gold or demand they grant wishes.
Still, Lia wants to wear some of the other beautiful colors she sees in the forest. When she gets the chance, Lia dares to swap her usual green outfit for a beautiful purple fairy dress.
But when she meets a human girl who needs her help, Lia comes to appreciate who she is and the magic she holds inside.
Jenny Olson spent most of her childhood running around barefoot in the woods, leading to a love of nature and all the magic it holds.
She currently lives in Richmond, Virginia with her younger daughter, two dogs and two cats.
When she is not writing, drawing, and painting, Jenny enjoys hiking, kayaking, and doing amigurumi crochet.
