Description

Bongo and the other animals from Mushroom Village love to eat cupcakes peacefully. But the hyenas from Deserted Island are lazy and like to steal cupcakes. The hyenas brought their coconut cannons over to Mushroom Village and threatened the animals so they would give up their cupcakes. Bonnie from Mushroom Village thought the best way to stop this hideous act was to put up signs and ban coconut cannons. This didn’t stop the hyenas, though! Bongo saved the island because he kept his coconut cannons and was ready to stand up against the hyenas when they came back. The activities and discussion points in the back of the book talk about our second amendment rights and how important it is to have these rights, along with the importance of being responsible and wise citizens. Softcover. 48 pgs. ~ Gina

Publisher's Description of Paws Off My Cannon (Saga One: The Origins)

BRAVE Books partnered with Dana Loesch to write Paws Off My Cannon, a children's book that teaches kids the importance of the Second Amendment. 

In every BRAVE Book, we partner with people of moral integrity to teach complex Christian and Conservative values. 

In Dana Loesch's book Paws Off My Cannon, follow Bongo, a daring and hungry gorilla, who loves eating food, especially mushroom-shaped cupcakes. But one day, a villainous hyena shoots a coconut at Bongo and his friend Bonnie. Bonnie is so upset at this misuse of coconut cannons that she suggests the village ban all coconut cannons. Bongo thinks that the hyenas are the problem, not the coconut cannons.

Their debate splits Mushroom Village, and when the hyenas return, their views are tested. Will Bongo and Bonnie finally see eye-to-eye or will one side prevail?

  • Paws Off My Cannon

Category Description for Brave Books

Have you been searching for children’s books that are wholesome, build strong character, and instill biblical values? BRAVE Books has taken on the challenge and created beautifully illustrated books with strong moral content for families to enjoy. Different authors like Kirk Cameron, Missy Robertson, General Michael Flynn, and many others have written books about the fruits of the spirit, the importance of family and unconditional love, the importance of freedom of speech and the Constitution, leadership, perseverance, and so many more valuable topics.

Brave Books consist of sequential book series called “sagas” where each book builds on the previous one. However, you don’t need to read them in order to enjoy the content or understand the moral message. Each saga includes ten books and follows a different storyline. The first of the series, Saga One: The Origins, is about the founding of Freedom Island and how certain courageous animals become Team BRAVE. In Saga Two: Iron Chaos, Team BRAVE battles Lester the Lemur and his ghastly pirate ship, Iron Chaos. In Saga Three: Tubular, Team BRAVE battles a villain named Pompous Penelope when she tampers with Freedom Island’s new messaging system, Tubular. And finally, in Saga Four: Dom-A-Tron, Team BRAVE is scattered across the island of Dom-A-Tron. As they try to find each other, they need to watch out for Black Heart, their adversary.

We sell each book individually, although there is a collector’s box set offered for Saga One. We currently do not have all ten books for Saga Four. Each book comes with a flag, a character sticker, and a map of Freedom Island. Kids can place the flag on the map according to where the story takes place. The character sticker goes in a designated group on the map, in either the Legends, Friends, or Villains group.

After the story, there are engaging activities and discussion questions to help further explain the moral of the story. QR codes take you to helpful video tutorials that explain the activities in a way the whole family can enjoy. Scripture is included with the discussion questions. You will also find information about each author and fun messages from the author about the topic of the story.

There is a lot of value in each book. You could even expand on the message or topic with more research or biblical study. These books were created for families as quality children’s books that ignite children’s imaginations and build foundational values. They would also make great birthday or Christmas gifts! ~ Gina

Category Description for Saga 1: Origins

Each book is written by a different author, including Missy Robertson, Trent Talbot, Ashley St. Clair, and more. Beautifully illustrated with captivating storylines, each story builds on the previous one. However, you don’t need to read them in order to enjoy the content and understand the moral. After each story, there are activities, discussion questions, and notes from the author about the topic. QR codes take you to short videos that explain the activities. Each story comes with a character sticker and a flag sticker. You can add these stickers to the Freedom Island map that also comes with each book. ~ Gina
