Reviews
This is a wonderful book to supplement preschool and kindergarten activities. The author was able to incorporate several emotions, holiday symbols, as well as positional and directional concepts in the text. This would support the academic and character education aspects of a school curriculum. The holiday pictures and specific color scheme on each page guides your imagination and knowledge of the upcoming holiday that Les visits while on his whirlwind search. When Les finds his beloved St. Patrick's Day and then goes on to find his friend, Calender, it made my heart melt. -Cynthia Bowen, School Psychological Examiner

She has her undergraduate degree in Communication Disorders from St Louis University, and a Master's Degree in Deaf Education from Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri. She lives in St. Louis, Missouri with her husband, Tom, her two daughters Abby and Katie and her dogs Millie and Clover. Les the Leprechaun was born over 20 years ago, when Maureen was looking for St. Patrick's Day stories to share with her students. Unable to find a story that fit the bill for her students, she began writing her own...fast forward to the birth of Les the Leprechaun. Les the Leprechaun is a quirky, lost soul who finds himself in the ultimate predicament when the calendar encounters a horrific wind than upsets the months. Les, in the chaos, discovers St. Patrick's Day has been misplaced, and he sets out on an epic adventure, to reclaim his day. Les stumbles upon holiday after holiday, with no luck of claiming his day...until one day, when he finds he has the Luck of the Irish on his side!
