Lost in Translation?


The Amazon product description for my eStorybook "The Leprechaun" reads: "A drunken Irishman stumbles across a man he believes to be a leprechaun, who shows him the true treasure he already has but doesn't appreciate. A short story for all ages by Keith B. Darrell. 4,041 words."

Unless you happen to stumble across an obscure site called Leprechaun Books.

On that site, the wee folk appear to have toyed with the description: "A inebriated Irishman stumbles opposite a male he believes to be a leprechaun, who shows him a loyal value he already has though doesn’t appreciate. A reduced story for all ages by Keith B. Darrell. 4,041 words."

"Reduced" story? If that isn't the leprechaun's pot calling the kettle black...
