Deep in the heart of the United States lies a magical place known as Indiana, or as our cool imaginary character, Wacky Wally the Writing Walrus, likes to call it, "The Word Wizard's Wonderland." Wacky Wally loves Indiana because it's not just full of Hoosier Hysteria for basketball, but also packed with pint-sized poets and adventurous authors! Wacky Wally once told me about these amazing Indiana kids, who are not your average Joe's and Jane's. No siree! They are gifted with the power of words, creating stories that could make you laugh so hard that you might snort out your chocolate milk, or weave a spooky tale that could make even the bravest of knights quake in their shiny metal boots! These young Indiana writers are quite a sight to see. They come from all corners of the state, from the bustling streets of Indianapolis to the peaceful cornfields of the countryside. They write under the shade of towering sycamore trees, or by the shores of the Great Lakes, their minds filled with magical words and astonishing adventures. Wacky Wally, with his giant walrus mustache and his magical pen (that doubles as a fish when he's hungry), loves visiting these Hoosier word wizards. He helps them add a little walrus wackiness to their stories, and in return, they teach him the latest Hoosier slang. It’s a funny sight when Wacky Wally tries to high-five with his flippers! So, in the enchanting realm of Indiana, where the basketballs bounce and the children write, you can hear the loud cheers of the crowd or the quiet rustling of paper. And if you listen really closely, you might just hear the amused chortles of a certain walrus, Wacky Wally, as he dives headfirst into another delightful Hoosier tale.
