    Great list! I would love for you to check out my new book, Finnigan’s Leprechaun Luck. It provides a delightful explanation as to why the end of the rainbow is so elusive and why a four-leaf clover is lucky to find. https://www.amazon.com/Finnigans-Leprechaun-Luck-Leprechauns-Four-Leaf/dp/1736621920
