Cavern of the Jewels
Author(s):
John Heuer
The greedy Buncharot, a blustering tycoon, treats his son and daughter like servants, while his wife clucks over him and dotes on the fortune he has amassed. Sent out to search for strawberries, the children go off to the forest, where they befriend two enchanting gnomes, Peri and Ponke, who guard the treasure of glittering jewels from which Nature draws its brilliant colors. The gnomes give their new friends a gigantic emerald, and Buncharot, once he lays eyes on it, realizes that the children have stumbled across the richest treasure in the world. He and the unscrupulous Reverend Archer plot to seize all the jewels and, for a time, they apparently succeed. But the children, along with Peri, Ponke and their woodland allies, soon outwit the thieving adults--restoring Nature's Treasure to its rightful guardians, while teaching Buncharot and his cronies a lesson they will not soon forget.
