Folk tales entertain people while teaching them moral values.
These stories are about very unusual characters
such as fairies and elves. The most popular are the leprechauns. Their
name means "small body'. They make shoes ans have a hidden pot of
gold. As legend has it, if you catch a leprechaun, it must tell you where
the pot of gold is. But be careful! It will try to trick you into looking
away for a second, and then it will disappear!
