Vinnie Goes To Vegas by Stephen Walsh and Marita O’Donovan (O’Brien, €8.99)

Books for kids...

First he catches shoals of fish, his vegetables grow overnight and then he fortuitously smuggles his way to Las Vegas. Here he wins a small fortune and tips doorman Chuck O’Leary enough money for him to make a trip to Ireland.

However, the moral in this attractively illustrated book is that money need not corrupt, and when Vinnie builds a fine mansion he soon generously hands it over to be used by his fellow leprechauns. When he decides that enough is enough, he throws away his lucky horseshoe. Guess who will find it? And so the circle will go on. Suitable for age seven and up.
