Summary

After encountering a leprechaun, Michael McKeever asks him to help with his family's money problems, but unable to part with his gold, the wee man finds another way to help. It's Saint Patrick's Day and Michael McKeever is about to get the surprise of his life. As he heads into the basement on an errand, he hears someone singing-someone who, unbeknownst to the McKeevers, has been living there for years. Its a leprechaun, complete with pot of gold. Surely the leprechaun can spare some of his treasure to help the McKeevers, but the leprechaun sees things differently
