The Walnut Warriors® (Go Monster Truckin'): Go Monster Truckin'

By Lance L. Palmgren

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.

Chapter I

When we last left the Walnut Warriors, they had just finished their Holiday Celebrations and settled in for the rest of winter: a sleepy, restful time spent deeply within their warm Giant Walnut Tree. The assorted Nuts had remained guests awaiting warmer weather.

Now, with the Winter Season past, Spring sprang. The Warriors were stirring and beginning talk of their next Mission. Restlessness charged the air.

A Warrior Messenger from the King Nut’s Court appeared and announced that they had been summoned to the Great Walnut Table for an immediate meeting with the King. He will be reading the next Scroll taken from the Vault of Secret Missions.

Greetings my Fellow Warriors, said King Nut, IV after all the Walnut Warriors had been seated. As the excited Walnut Warriors exchanged greetings with the King, the King began unrolling the Scroll to read the next secret Mission.

Dear Walnut Warriors, read the King Nut. "If you are attending the reading of this Secret Scroll, we, your ancestral Nuts, are very pleased and thankful that you survived the previous Missions.

As you will remember, during your second Mission journey, The Quest for the Lost Gold, you came upon the Deep Misty Forest River. You then crossed the River and continued onward; however, at the River Crossing, if you had turned right and followed the river, it would have led you to the Crystal Sea. This Mission requires you to
