Comment on Saint Paddy's Day and other fun seasonal events

It has been very hard this Saint Paddy's Day (aka St. Patrick's Day) to find any fun books to read to the "wee folk".  I have found collections of stories for the older ones but no good ones for, as I have just mentioned, the "wee folk".  It does seem to be a dilemma relegated to "seasonal" literature.  It would be a great place for publishers to focus an attack to print good books with seasonal themes.  Some it would be relatively easy to do by focusing on a folktale around the subject and enlisting the aid of a good illustrator.  Till then I will have to rely on the folktales themselves and a good Iris brogue or whatever other dialect I have in my repertoire.
