Brief description:
Henry Cole was a celebrated science teacher for many years before turning his talents to children's books. He has worked on nearly one hundred and fifty books for children, including Unspoken, Big Bug, A Nest for Celeste, Jack's Garden, and On Meadowview Street. Henry loves being outside, where he can sketch and write. His favorite sound is the first robin song of the spring. You can visit him online at www.henrycole.net.
Review Quotes:
"Cole's imaginative illustrations are a good match for the story. An appealing tale that need not be limited to St. Patrick's Day story time." - ALA Booklist
"A fresh leprechaun tale. The narrative flows off the tongue, and Cole's feisty caricatures are easily seen from a distance." - School Library Journal
