A story about Skip, a young leprechaun with a broken heart who ventured out into the mortals' world to save his missing parents he loved, who at the time were presumably held captive by mortals as slaves in or about Dublin Town. With only a smidgen of his grown-up leprechaunic powers, he manages to get himself drunk and a stowaway aboard a ship bound to America causing grave trouble onboard and almost sinking the ship. Until he gains his full powers as a leprechaun, he has many upon many mishaps. With his Emerald Irish luck, he manages to accomplish the risky task he set out on in saving both parents held by an evil mortal and brings them both back home to Ireland from America. In this adventure, he makes two mortal enemies of leprechauns who befriended him, very rich and happy by going out of their way to help him when he had placed himself in great danger, and who helped to save his loved ones.
