Riassunto

Jealous of Old Pat’s superior talent in playing the harp, Young Tom secretly breaks one of his strings so that poor Old Pat can’t play in the big contest, yet a grateful leprechaun gifts Old Pat with a golden harp just in the nick of time while Young Tom’s harp ends up the one that is unable to be played.

Dalla quarta di copertina:

In this classic Irish legend, two harpists -- merry-hearted Old Pat and ill-spirited Young Tom -- set off for a contest to name the finest harpist in all of Ireland. When Young Tom realizes that Old Pat is truly the better musician, he schemes to be the winner -- but he doesn′t reckon with the clever trickery of a mischievous little leprechaun.

Noted picture book creators Pamela Duncan Edwards and Henry Cole have imagined a joyful and fanciful tale with a priceless lesson.
