Brightly Storytime: Jamie O’Rourke and the Big Potato

by the Brightly Editors

After a leprechaun tricks Jamie Oโ€™Rourke into taking a seed for a potato that will feed him through the winter instead of the creatureโ€™s treasure pot of gold, the lazy farmer thinks his luck has finally changed. But could a potato the size of a house be more than Jamie โ€” and the villagers โ€” can handle? Follow along with this retelling of a classic Irish folktale to find out!
