The Goopy Ghost at St. Patrick's Day

Overview The Goopy Ghost is at it again. Goopy gets into another adventure, and this one has our bright orange spirit mixing it up with leprechauns on St. Patrick's Day. In this new book in the richly illustrated children's book series, the Goopy Ghost must rescue a leprechaun and win back his stolen pot of gold to save St. Patrick's Day. In the run-up to St. Patrick's Day, Goopy is looking for a leprechaun to share in the holiday spirit. Of course, events don't take place as hoped. Instead of a jovial leprechaun, our bright orange ghost finds a wee "man" pleading for help because a naughty band of thieves has stolen his gold and locked him in a cage. Together, Goopy and the leprechaun work up an outrageous scheme to get the gold back and show up these mischievous thieves. Goopy turns into a stack of gold coins that will prove irresistible to the thieves. When the robbers come upon the pile of gold, they quickly snatch it up without knowing of the goopy surprise that lurks within. What Goopy does next will teach the sticky-handed fellows a lesson or two about sharing and will also save the spirit of St. Patrick's Day. Then, the leprechaun will grant him three wishes that Goopy will use in ways no one expects.
