Little man can be compared to the European counterparts- dwarfs, elves, gnomes, and leprechauns. The novel draws heavily on Irish and European folklore about changelings, leprechauns, and fairies. They also tend to favour stereotypical parts of Irish culture&colon; shamrocks, Leprechauns and shillelaghs. In other parts of the world, fairies, leprechauns, and other creatures replace aliens as abductors. Mot and Leo are confronted by Banshees, Leprechauns and Merlin the Wizard in this Volume. Jessica's parents think Mickey kidnapped her and they start a war with the leprechauns. Early film work also includes "The Magical Legend of the Leprechauns" (1999). There have been reports of at least ten Leprechauns in one parade. When he arrives, Brian and Pete are shot at but ultimately kill both leprechauns.
