"We at Adventist Christian Academy
want to thank the Best of Friends Puppet and Storytelling for such a marvelous performance for our students. All the students,
from the pre-kindergartners to the tenth graders, were mesmerized by the David And Goliath story, Harriette and the 23rd Psalm,
and the skits on obedience and greed. Many people were sure that there were several people behind the curtain, and they were
so surprised to find one very talented lady doing it all. Your background in teaching and storytelling shines, and we appreciate
the excellence of the program you brought us."

"Wonderfully delightful and entertaining puppet performances for
my daughters' birthday parties. My 3 year old, Katie, and her friends were simply captivated by the show. Katie was given
a special puppet princess performance for her party. My 6 year old, Caroline, was thrilled by the chance to put on a puppet
show with her guests, for the parents. Lona's puppets and storytelling created some wonderful memories of their birthdays."
