"Just when parents are fretting over what the culture is exposing their children to, here comes my friend Donna Braymer with a refreshing series skillfully teaching Biblical values in an engaging fashion. What a satisfying tool for savvy parents!"

SHARON HOFFMAN, Conference Speaker, Author, and Founder of G.I.F.T.ed Living Ministries

"As a speaker, mother, and teacher, Donna is uniquely qualified to craft children's books. As she invites readers to enter Rowdy's world, children and adults alike can't help but laugh, learn, and be delightfully entertained. I'm sure to read every one of her books to my grandchildren time and time again."

KEITH BASSHAM, Executive Editor of the Baptist Bible Tribune

"Donna is good at finding the story in any life situation. Whether she's taking a lesson from life and teaching it from the perspective of human-like animals, or uncovering what is behind the actions of real people, her story-telling is always engaging. Having Donna as a friend has a trap--let her get too close, and she will find your story too!"

JOHN PAUL HAMMERSCHMIDT, Retired Congressman, Third District, Arkansas

“Congratulations on your very successful venture with Rowdy Raccoon.  It is indeed a treasure for children to help them learn simple basic values and behavior. "

CARLA SLAYDEN, Owasso, Oklahoma

I have heard Donna Braymer speak a number of times, and have invited her to speak for two different events for women. One was a Christmas tea at our church and another a regional fellowship seminar for women.  Everytime I have heard her speak, she has been insightful, warm, encouraging and challenging.  Her genuine love for the Lord, His Word, and His people is evident.  I am thankful to call her a friend.

"We are so excited and impressed with the new book written by Donna Braymer.   Rowdy Racoon and the Turtle Who Wanted to Fly is illustrated with beautiful color.  The book’s content teaches safety, trust and not to be envious of what others have; but instead to be happy just being ourselves, the way God made us.  Even the younger child can understand the lessons portrayed  in the book.  We’re looking forward to many more Rowdy Raccoon books in the future."

Lisa, A Young Mother

"I wanted to let you know how very much my kids enjoy Rowdy. We have read the book to them at bedtime, and now every time we get in the van to go anywhere, they insist we put in the Rowdy CD. Shelby has already learned the song and sings along with it. All three children are quiet as a mouse as it plays. They listen intently! My kids are hooked!"

Donna is our piano teacher for my boys. When the first book was republished, our middle child liked it so much, he ran off with it in his room and none of us were able to see it for weeks. The boys are a bit old now but Morgan, our youngest,  loves the book and tells everyone "Mrs. Braymer did it."  The illustrations are beautiful.  I really like the content of the story. It is a good reminder for all of us.
