"Leprechauns"
by

oday I plan to catch a leprechaun. First I will have to make a plan to catch one. So I should make a list of the things I will need to catch a leprechaun. The things I will need are a pot, some paper cones, some paint and a box.

I painted the pot black and I painted the paper cones gold. Then I put the paper cones into the pot. Then I took the box and set it on two sticks. I slide the pot under the box. I waited and waited until I saw a leprechaun. The leprechaun ran right in to the trap. I ran to the box as fast as I could. I peeked in the box and there was a leprechaun.

I said "What is your name"

The leprechaun said "My name is Rumplestillskin to you, Buster. Now can you please let me out of here!"

"Well, first you will hand me the pot of gold", I said.

“OK, here it is”, said Ruplstellskin. “Now can you let me out of here?”, he asked.

“Here you go”, I replied.

“Well, good bye kid”, and he disappeared.

I held a gold coin in the air then I accidentally dropped the gold coin. It fluttered down like a piece of paper.

"I was tricked by the leprechaun! This is one of the paper coins I made and this is my pot that I painted. I’ll get that leprechaun someday!"

The End
