BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | 6 Months Ended |
Aug. 31, 2022 | |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block] | Note 1 Basis of Presentation The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim condensed financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements include all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. Such adjustments consist only of normal recurring items, unless otherwise disclosed herein. Accordingly, the Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. These interim Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements as of and for the year ended February 28, 2022 included in our Form 10-K. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year due to the seasonality of our product sales. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to the fiscal year 2022 condensed statement of cash flows and footnotes to conform to the classifications used in fiscal year 2023. These reclassifications had no effect on net earnings. COVID-19 Update The Company has taken numerous steps, and will continue to take further actions, in its approach to minimize the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. We are closely monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and continually assessing its potential effects on our business. The long-term severity and duration of the pandemic are uncertain and the extent to which our results are affected by COVID-19 cannot be accurately predicted. See Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for more information on the impact COVID-19 had during the current fiscal period. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements The preparation of the Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant Accounting Policies Our significant accounting policies, other than the adoption of new accounting pronouncements separately documented herein and unless other disclosed, are consistent with those disclosed in Note 1 to our audited financial statements as of and for the year ended February 28, 2022 included in our Form 10-K. New Accounting Pronouncements The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) periodically issues new accounting standards in a continuing effort to improve standards of financial accounting and reporting. We have reviewed the recently issued accounting standards updates (“ASU”) and concluded that the following recently issued accounting standard applies to us: In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04: Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This update provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease potential accounting impacts associated with transitioning away from reference rates that are discontinued, such as London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). This ASU includes practical expedients for contract modifications due to reference rate reform. Generally, contract modifications related to reference rate reform may be considered an event that does not require remeasurement or reassessment of a previous accounting determination at the modification date. This ASU is effective March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. With the execution of the Company’s new Credit Agreement with BOKF, NA on August 9, 2022, the Company no longer has a loan agreement utilizing interest rates that reference LIBOR. The Company’s new Credit Agreement utilizes the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) published by the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. |

On August 9, 2022, the Company repaid in full all outstanding indebtedness and terminated all commitments and obligations under its Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated February 15, 2021 (as amended), between the Company and MidFirst Bank. The Company’s payment to MidFirst Bank, including interest, was $45,028,600, which satisfied all of the Company’s debt obligations with MidFirst Bank. The Company did not incur any early termination penalties as a result of the repayment of indebtedness or termination of the Amended and Restated Loan Agreement, which provided Term Loan #1, Advancing Term Loan #1, Advancing Term Loan #2 and the Revolving Loan. In connection with the repayment of outstanding indebtedness, the Company was automatically and permanently released from all security interests, mortgages, liens and encumbrances under the Amended and Restated Loan Agreement with MidFirst Bank. The material terms of the Amended and Restated Loan Agreement with MidFirst Bank are described in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on May 5, 2022. On August 9, 2022, the Company executed a new Credit Agreement (“Loan Agreement”) with BOKF, NA (“Bank of Oklahoma” or the “Lender”). The Loan Agreement establishes a fixed rate term loan in the principal amount of $15,000,000 (the “Fixed Rate Term Loan”), a floating rate term loan in the principal amount of $21,000,000 (the “Floating Rate Term Loan”; together with the Fixed Rate Term Loan, collectively, the “Term Loans”), and a revolving promissory note in the principal amount up to $15,000,000 (the “Revolving Loan” or “Line of Credit”). Features of the Loan Agreement include: (i) Term Loans on 20-year amortization with 5-year maturity date of August 9, 2027 (ii) Revolving Loan maturity date of August 9, 2023 (iii) Fixed Rate Term Loan bears interest at a fixed rate per annum equal to 4.26% (iv) Floating Rate Term Loan bears interest at a rate per annum equal to Term SOFR Rate + 1.75% (effective rate was 4.03% at August 31, 2022) (v) Revolving Loan bears interest at a rate per annum equal to Term SOFR Rate + 2.50% (effective rate was 4.78% at August 31, 2022) (vi) Revolving Loan allows for Letters of Credit up to $7,500,000 (none were outstanding at August 31, 2022) The Loan Agreement also contains provisions that require the Company to maintain a minimum fixed charge ratio and limits any additional debt with other lenders. Available credit under the current $15,000,000 revolving line of credit with the Lender was approximately $2,939,100 at August 31, 2022. The following table reflects aggregate future scheduled maturities of long-term debt during the next five fiscal years and thereafter as follows: Years ending February 28 (29), 2023 $ 900,000 2024 1,800,000 2025 1,800,000 2026 1,800,000 2027 1,800,000 Thereafter 27,900,000 Total $ 36,000,000 |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Earnings Per Share [Text Block] | Note 5 Basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period excluding nonvested restricted stock awards. Diluted EPS includes the dilutive effect of issued unvested restricted stock awards and additional potential common shares issuable under stock warrants, restricted stock and stock options, if applicable. We utilized the treasury stock method in computing the potential common shares issuable under stock warrants, restricted stock and stock options. The computation of weighted average common and common equivalent shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted EPS is shown below: Three Months Ended August 31, Six Months Ended August 31, 2022 2021 2022 2021 Earnings (loss): Net earnings (loss) applicable to common shareholders $ (801,900 ) $ 1,898,200 $ (586,100 ) $ 5,336,300 Weighted average shares: Weighted average shares outstanding-basic 8,081,807 8,028,594 8,084,117 8,028,929 Issued unvested restricted stock and assumed shares issuable under granted unvested restricted stock awards - 406,754 - 429,735 Weighted average shares outstanding-diluted 8,081,807 8,435,348 8,084,117 8,458,664 Earnings (loss) per share: Basic $ (0.10 ) $ 0.24 $ (0.07 ) $ 0.66 Diluted $ (0.10 ) $ 0.23 $ (0.07 ) $ 0.63 As shown in the table below, the following shares have not been included in the calculation of diluted earnings (loss) per share as they would be anti-dilutive to the calculation above.

Share-Based Payment Arrangement, Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Disclosure of Share-Based Compensation Arrangements by Share-Based Payment Award [Table Text Block] | Note 6 We account for share-based compensation whereby share-based payment transactions with employees, such as stock options and restricted stock, are measured at estimated fair value at the date of grant. For awards subject to service conditions, compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. Awards subject to performance conditions are attributed separately for each vesting tranche of the award and are recognized ratably from the service inception date to the vesting date for each tranche. Forfeitures are recognized when they occur. The probability of restricted share awards granted with future performance conditions is evaluated at each reporting period and share awards are updated and compensation expense is adjusted based on updated information. In July 2018, our shareholders approved the Company’s 2019 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2019 LTI Plan”). The 2019 LTI Plan established up to 600,000 shares of restricted stock available to be granted to certain members of management based on exceeding specified net revenues and pre-tax performance metrics during fiscal years 2019, 2020 or 2021. The Company exceeded all defined metrics during these fiscal years and 600,000 shares were granted to members of management according to the Plan. The granted shares under the 2019 LTI Plan “cliff vest” after five years from the fiscal year that the defined metrics were exceeded. In July 2021, our shareholders approved the Company’s 2022 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2022 LTI Plan”). The 2022 LTI Plan established up to 300,000 shares of restricted stock available to be granted to certain members of management based on exceeding specified net revenues and pre-tax performance metrics during fiscal years 2022 or 2023. The number of restricted shares to be distributed depends on attaining the performance metrics defined by the 2022 LTI Plan and may result in the distribution of a number of shares that is less than, but not greater than, the number of restricted shares outlined in the terms of the 2022 LTI Plan. Restricted shares granted under the 2022 LTI Plan “cliff vest” after five years from the fiscal year that the defined metrics were exceeded. During fiscal year 2019, the Company granted 308,000 restricted shares under the 2019 LTI Plan with an average grant-date fair value of $9.94 per share. In fiscal year 2021, 5,000 of these restricted shares were forfeited. These shares were made available to be reissued to remaining participants upon forfeiture. During fiscal year 2023, 10,000 of these restricted shares were forfeited, along with 969 additional shares purchased with dividends received from the original issue date. The fiscal year 2023 forfeitures are available for reissue to remaining participants under the 2019 LTI Plan. The remaining compensation expense for the outstanding awards, totaling approximately $315,300 as of August 31, 2022, will be recognized ratably over the remaining vesting period of approximately 6 months. During fiscal year 2021, the Company granted 297,000 restricted shares under the 2019 LTI Plan, including the 5,000 aforementioned shares that were previously forfeited and held in Treasury, with an average grant-date fair value of $6.30 per share. During fiscal year 2023, 18,000 of these restricted shares were forfeited, along with 760 additional shares purchased with dividends received from the original issue date. These shares are available for reissue to remaining participants under the 2019 LTI Plan. The remaining compensation expense of these awards, totaling approximately $922,600 as of August 31, 2022, will be recognized ratably over the remaining vesting period of approximately 30 months. Total shares available for reissue to remaining participants under the 2019 LTI Plan was 28,000 at August 31, 2022. As of August 31, 2022, no shares have been granted under the 2022 LTI Plan. A summary of compensation expense recognized in connection with restricted share awards follows: Three Months Ended August 31, Six Months Ended August 31, 2022 2021 2022 2021 Share-based compensation expense $ 261,600 $ 261,700 $ 523,200 $ 523,300 Less reduction of expense for forfeitures (141,900 ) - (141,900 ) - Share-based compensation expense - net 119,700 261,700 381,300 523,300 The following table summarizes stock award activity during the first six months of fiscal year 2023 under the 2019 LTI Plan: Shares Weighted Average Fair Value (per share) Outstanding at February 28, 2022 600,000 $ 8.14 Granted - - Vested - - Forfeited (28,000 ) 7.60 Outstanding at August 31, 2022 572,000 $ 8.17 As of August 31, 2022, total unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to unvested granted or issued restricted shares was $1,237,900, which we expect to recognize over a weighted-average period of 23.9 months. |

Segment Reporting Disclosure [Text Block] | Note 8 We have two reportable segments: Usborne Books & More (“UBAM”) and Publishing. These reportable segments are business units that offer different methods of distribution to different types of customers. They are managed separately based on the fundamental differences in their operations. Our UBAM segment markets its products through a network of independent sales consultants using a combination of internet sales, direct sales, home shows and book fairs. Our Publishing segment markets its products to retail accounts, which include book, school supply, toy and gift stores, museums, trade and specialty wholesalers, through commissioned sales representatives and our internal tele-sales group. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those of the rest of the Company. We evaluate segment performance based on earnings (loss) before income taxes of the segments, which is defined as segment net revenues reduced by cost of sales and direct expenses. Corporate expenses, depreciation, interest expense and income taxes are not allocated to the segments but are listed in the “Other” row below. Corporate expenses include the executive department, accounting department, information services department, general office management, warehouse operations and building facilities management.

Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Basis of Presentation The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim condensed financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements include all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. Such adjustments consist only of normal recurring items, unless otherwise disclosed herein. Accordingly, the Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. These interim Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements as of and for the year ended February 28, 2022 included in our Form 10-K. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year due to the seasonality of our product sales. |
Reclassification, Comparability Adjustment [Policy Text Block] | Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to the fiscal year 2022 condensed statement of cash flows and footnotes to conform to the classifications used in fiscal year 2023. These reclassifications had no effect on net earnings. |
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements The preparation of the Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | New Accounting Pronouncements The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) periodically issues new accounting standards in a continuing effort to improve standards of financial accounting and reporting. We have reviewed the recently issued accounting standards updates (“ASU”) and concluded that the following recently issued accounting standard applies to us: In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04: Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This update provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease potential accounting impacts associated with transitioning away from reference rates that are discontinued, such as London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). This ASU includes practical expedients for contract modifications due to reference rate reform. Generally, contract modifications related to reference rate reform may be considered an event that does not require remeasurement or reassessment of a previous accounting determination at the modification date. This ASU is effective March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. With the execution of the Company’s new Credit Agreement with BOKF, NA on August 9, 2022, the Company no longer has a loan agreement utilizing interest rates that reference LIBOR. The Company’s new Credit Agreement utilizes the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) published by the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. |

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION (Details) [Line Items] | ||||
Share-Based Compensation Arrangement by Share-Based Payment Award, Description | The 2019 LTI Plan established up to 600,000 shares of restricted stock available to be granted to certain members of management based on exceeding specified net revenues and pre-tax performance metrics during fiscal years 2019, 2020 or 2021. The Company exceeded all defined metrics during these fiscal years and 600,000 shares were granted to members of management according to the Plan. The granted shares under the 2019 LTI Plan “cliff vest” after five years from the fiscal year that the defined metrics were exceeded.In July 2021, our shareholders approved the Company’s 2022 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2022 LTI Plan”). The 2022 LTI Plan established up to 300,000 shares of restricted stock available to be granted to certain members of management based on exceeding specified net revenues and pre-tax performance metrics during fiscal years 2022 or 2023. The number of restricted shares to be distributed depends on attaining the performance metrics defined by the 2022 LTI Plan and may result in the distribution of a number of shares that is less than, but not greater than, the number of restricted shares outlined in the terms of the 2022 LTI Plan. | |||
