'AVATARS OF GAIA, ESCAPE FROM HAZARD HOLLOW'

Goofy adventure-fantsy chapter book with an environmental theme.

Dear Friend, If you have found this book it is your destiny to 'crystallize' into Gaia! Before you read any further put one hand on a tree and the other on your heart and say, 'I promise to never show this book to any mutant plant from Hazard Hollow'. The Hazardian Kruddys want to pollute the home of the Gaians in Whistling Falls meadow. Did you say the oath? If 'yes', proceed! You see my friend, the Earth and Gaia need our help. What is Gaia, ( Guy-ah) you ask? It is the ancient name for the 'invisible' living dimension of the Earth. I say invisible because one can not see it unless one is lucky enough to find Prism Bridge and 'crystalize' into Gaia. Once there you receive a superpower! Whatever happens in Gaia affects Earth. Like a family, all eco-systems are connected. If nature is destroyed there, our dimension is next! Despite the dangers to be faced I have taken an oath to defend the Heart of Nature.

With love for all living things,

Prof.Heart, Executive Avatar In Charge

Summary: Prof. Heart and the brave Avatars of Gaia are mystically transported from their Shasta summer camp into the dimension of the living Earth, Gaia. In Gaia they meet the leafy 'plantizens' of Whistling Falls Meadow and loyal guardian, Munchimonster, (who fell into a 'krud grub' no-no-nutrient nap and now the half-human, half-butterfly Princess, L'Muriel is gone)! Without her the balance of nature is upset and the Gaians could become extinct! In order to restore harmony in Gaia the wise Babushka Tree sends the Avatars on a dangerous mission into Hazard Hollow. It is a place where the Earth's plasticrud collects and Krud Grub is manufactured. Worse than that, they must defeat the Krud King, a prickly mutated plant, and his bossy pro-fumes mixing wife, the Queen of Krud. They want to pollute everything, destroy the Heart of Nature, Prof. Heart, and the Avatars of Gaia. But the Avatars of Gaia can become heroes. They have mastered their outdoor skills and awakened their dormant power within. Not only must they battle mutant species, they also need to survive the Hazardian's unhealthy food and unsustainable habits!

In order to save the Earth and Whistling Falls meadow Munchimonster must learn the difference between healthy green grub and sugary krud grub. The kids must master their new Gaian super power as they dodge flaming Goozballs, Deformo Frogs, flame pulsing Incinersabers, and the King's henchmen, Fooey and Phartus!
