This was a cute St. Patrick's Day book about shamrocks that I think would go great in a St. Patty's Day themed storytime.

You Shamrock My World is part of the Punderland series of books and boy is it full of puns. It says it is a book for babies and toddlers, but my 4 yo grandson didn't get the puns, nor understand all the vocabulary but my 8 yo did and he loved it. We laughed and groaned together. Some of them included "I'm lucky and I gnome it, and I love to watch you grow" or "You're my special leprechaun, who loves to dance and jig" or the one we groaned at "You're the life of the paddy, to you we give a cheer". This is a great book to teach vocabulary around St. Patrick's Day, as well as to get a laugh or two from the listener. The cadence wasn't always perfect during the read aloud, but we did enjoy it. The 8 yo read it to her father as well, and they both laughed together at some of the puns, so to me, that is a success.

"I-Rish" I had this book when I was a young reader!! I am so LUCKY to have the opportunity to read it now.
As an Irish women named Kelly born on St. Patrick’s Day (true fact)- my Irish eyes certainly are smiling!!

The illustrations are fresh and colorful and capture the spirit of St. Patrick’s Day so perfectly.

The storyline and puns will certainly keep your young reader and listener captivated. And even if you don’t celebrate this holiday, it is a great story about the love of a parent or grandparent and a child. This would make a great gift for a young reader and even for a parent to read to read to their Lil’ Shamrock.

Grateful to have received a digital copy of this book from NetGalley & SOURCEBOOKS Kids, Sourcebooks Explore.
Adding an additional star for a "6-Star" review!!!

What a lovely little book. There really aren't enough St. Pats books out there, so I am always excited to find new ones. This one is great, and I think kids will enjoy it.

I quite enjoyed this book and would give to to a pun loving adult or child . Some puns were better then others, but "I'm lucky and I gnome it" is by far my favorite.

It's an enjoyable book for pun lovers and the children they love.

The cutest clovers in the pack will love this St. Patrick’s Day treat! Short and sweet, these catchy rhymes will have your little one doubled over in laughter, but will also remind them how special and loved they are, and what a treasure and gift they are to their parents and loved ones, in addition to the world. These illustrations are so bright and colorful, with unicorns, leprechauns, gnomes, butterflies, and more, and will have your kiddos staring for hours. I love this one!
