Arcade and the Triple T Token
by Rashad Jennings
Part 1 of the Coin Slot Chronicles series
The Coin Slot Chronicles series, by former NFL running back and Dancing with the Stars champion Rashad Jennings, is a humorous and imaginative series that explores the power of friendship and imagination, the challenges in finding your place, and the reality of missing home. Eleven-year-old Arcade Livingston has a problem. Several, actually. The Tolley twins, a.k.a. neighborhood bullies, are making Arcade's move to a new city even harder than it needs to be. They expect him to do their research papers and interactive displays for the sixth-grade career expo's theme: "What do you want to be when you grow up?" Besides doing their work, Arcade doesn't even know his own answer to that question. Then at the library-Arcade's favorite place to chill-a mysterious old woman gives him a golden arcade token that grants him a unique gift. A gift that allows him to time travel between different places including his own future. From sitting in the dugout with Babe Ruth, to hanging on to the back of a bucking bull, to performing life-saving surgery on a dog, Arcade has no shortage of adventure! Together with his older sister, Zoe, Arcade explores life's biggest thrills and challenges, and the two also have a big mystery to solve. Who is the rightful owner of the incredible Triple T Token that leads to such astounding adventures? Arcade's circle of friends begins to widen as the Triple T Token hangs from his neck. Pulsing. Beckoning another adventure. The question for Arcade, Zoe, and their new friends is no longer, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" It's, "Where will we go next?"

In Arcade and the Golden Travel Guide, Arcade, Zoe, and their new friend, Doug, travel from New York to Virginia to stay with cousins and best friends, Derek and Celeste. It's a chance for Arcade to feel "normal" again and connect with people and places he's loved all his life. But nothing is normal as long as the Triple T Token is hanging around his neck. Plus, Derek claims he's stumbled upon some troubling information, and now a suspicious person is following him. Arcade wonders if the trouble is related to the token-after all, someone has already tried to take it from him once.
Where did this Triple T Token come from? And are all the adventures it provides worth all the trouble it brings?
A trip through the token's fantastical doors reveals a clue-a hidden box of old notes. As Arcade, Zoe, and their friends start to put the pieces together, the value of the token becomes clear, and the stakes are higher than ever. Can Arcade keep the token for himself? Or will sinister forces steal it from his grasp?
