Languages : en
Pages : 46
Book Description
Following instructions of the next Secret Mission Scroll, the noble Walnut Warriors embarked on an adventure far from the safety of their Misty Forest homeland: A trek truly into uncharted, extremely rugged territory; and, farther on into, perhaps, a perilous unknown. Aware menacing obstacles may await the courageous explorers; clubs were kept at the ready, in hand. Traversing perilously deep terrain fissures, dangerous rocks and huge boulders many times the size of the Warriors would have been impossible, had the Secret Mission Scroll not warned of the need to create and build suitable all terrain vehicles; thus, the creation of (with, of course, CashShoe technological assistance) Walnut Warrior Monster Trucks. Yes, indeedy, successful all terrain vehicles were created; BUT, WHAT ABOUT RAGING WATERFALLS AND TREACHEROUS, SCALY, GREEN-LOG BEASTIES? Could the Warrior Monster Trucks cope; could the Walnut Warriors survive? What of a possible treasure discovery? Readers know, will you? Accompanied by the Author's fully-colored illustrations (referred to and coined by Lance as technical cartooning), The Walnut Warriors (Go Monster Truckin') is a treasure trove of fun and adventure, seeded with nuggets of wisdom. For children of all ages, an excellent choice of reading material for parents who want to make storytelling and reading as educational as it is entertaining.

Author: Lance L. Palmgren
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1479785571
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 64
Book Description
In this final (?)* volume, The Walnut Warriors® (In Outer Space), you will witness huge, roaring meteorite fireballs, falling from the sky and randomly careening into and throughout the deep Misty Forest. Each fireball lands with a boom and ignites a fire — the most dreaded enemy of the Walnut Warriors and their precious Walnut Trees. King Nut,IV, his faithful Warriors and the befriended CashShoes, which are known for their technical expertise and witty inventions, frantically work on a plan to determine the origin of the fireballs. The Warrior AstroNuts hope to find, in outer space, the menace that is creating life threatening meteor showers that rain down on their Misty Forest, starting alarming fires. They must figure a way to stop them, or it, before the entire forest burned – roasting all the nuts. Will the AstroNuts find the perpetrators, discovering who they are; better yet, what they are, and save the forest? In the Walnut Warriors series, Palmgren has written a unique saga that is essentially based on his actual life experiences. The storyline’s premise not only involves the proverbial triumph of good over evil but also teaches the readers tolerance, respect and the value of character differences—sociologically, physically, and intellectually. *(Psssssst! Author/Illustrator Lance L. Palmgren whispers that, as works in progress, he currently has 3 more Walnut Warriors® stories on his drawing board: The Walnut Warriors® Meet Bigfoot; The Walnut Warriors® Rock Band; and, The Walnut Warriors® Deep Sea Dive. Watch for them in 2014 along with his anticipated Walnut Warriors® Floor Game and collectible Action Figures.)

They live in a secret place deep inside a misty forest on and inside a huge, extremely old walnut tree. The 7-Book Series takes the characters through 7 different adventures as are suggested by each Title: Book 1: The Walnut Warriors (In a Nutshell) [Book 1 of a Trilogy] introduces the Walnut Warrior characters, weaves a little story describing Walnut Warrior lifestyle and home-life location, perils, friends, and typical enemies and sets the stage for the forthcoming adventures in Books 2 & 3 of the Trilogy. Each Book ends with a tantalizing suggestion of the next book s plot. Too, Book 1 sets the stage for Book 2 of the Trilogy, the first adventure away from home.

Here the Warriors must search out, locate, and go to battle against enemies -- the Bully Boulders, the Naughty Nuggets, and their Stone King -- who stole the Warriors gold several nut-generations ago:. (Book 2 became a catalyst generating a floor Game with catapults that will be submitted to the top toy manufacturers by a Toy Broker (considered one of the top 3 Toy Brokers in the Nation) who expressed genuine interest and representation acceptance after the Books are published and in the marketplace. Certain toys generated by each Book will be brought to market. Most have schematics for manufacture completed. The Walnut Warriors themselves will be collectible action figures. We foresee the sale of toys complementing the sale of Books and visa-versa.) Book 3: The Walnut Warriors (Armada of the Crystal Sea). The Warriors build boats and set sail to explore new lands and trade routes while looking for lost Warriors that were carried away by giant birds. They meet the Peanut Pirates on the high seas and eventually many assorted nuts on an island visited: the CashShoes (highly trained technical nuts); Brazil Nuts that dance the Limbo; Mustachio Pistachios, etc. -- many new friendships are established. The lost Warriors are rescued and new friends and technology are brought back to the Great Walnut Tree. Book 4: (Begins separate unrelated adventures using the technological assistance of their friends, the CashShoes.) The Walnut Warriors Go To The Drags covers building different racecars and a drag strip facility for the entertainment of the Warriors, Assorted Nuts, and friends. In every Book, readers learn interesting facts here they learn about racing fuels and the perils of drag racing.

Will the AstroNuts find the perpetrators and save the forest? Who are they, better yet what are they? This book follows the adventurous Warriors as they build a rocket and blast into outer space.

Book Description
King Solomon, the Bible's wisest king, was possessed of extraordinary wealth. The grand temple he built in Jerusalem was covered in gold. Over the ages, many have sought to find the source of the great king's wealth -- but none with so much flair, wit, or whimsy as Tahir Shah. Intrigued by a map he finds in a shop not far from the site of the temple, Shah assembles a multitude of clues to the location of Solomon's mines. From ancient texts to modern hearsay, all point across the Red Sea to Ethiopia. Shah's trail takes him on a wild ride by taxi, bus, camel, and donkey to the gold-bearing corners of this storied and beautiful country. He interviews the hyena man of Harar, is hauled up on a rope to enter a remote cliff-face monastery, and stumbles upon an illegal gold mine where thousands of men, women, and children dig with their hands. But the hardest leg of the journey is to the accursed mountain of Tullu Wallel, where legend says the devil keeps watch over the entrance to an ancient mine shaft... Book jacket.
