Others believe they live in the roots of trees. Yet another rumor insists they live in hedgerows along the country lanes of Ireland. Which of these is true, I am not sure. You will have to decide for yourself. What I do know is, the people of Ireland all believe in leprechauns.
Most leprechauns live to be about three hundred years old.
The older they get, the more tricks they play. If you ever see one, you can't mistake it. Leprechauns always dress in green frock coats that have seven silver buttons. Their trousers are black and the legs reach only to their knees where they are met by white knee-high stockings. Their shoes are black, have large silver buckles and the toes are said to curl upward.
