Mail Stop 0308 							March 9, 2005 Randall W. White President and Chief Executive Officer Educational Development Corporation 10302 East 55th Place Tulsa, OK 74146-6515 	RE:	Educational Development Corporation 		Item 4.01 Form 8-K filed February 28, 2005 	File No. 0-4957 Dear Mr. White: 	 We have reviewed the above referenced filing and have the following comments. We welcome any questions you may have about our comments. Feel free to contact us at the telephone numbers listed at the end of this letter. 1. You state that there were no disagreements with your former accountants through November 30, 2004. Please revise to state that there were no disagreements through February 22, 2005, if true. See Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K. The disclosure with respect to consultations with your new auditor should also cover the interim period preceding their engagement. Please revise accordingly. 2. Please revise the first paragraph to state you dismissed Deloitte & Touche, if true. We do not believe the statement that you decided not to re-engage them satisfies the requirements of Item 304(a)(1)(i) of Regulation S-K. Please revise or advise. We urge all persons who are responsible for the accuracy and adequacy of the disclosure in the filing reviewed by the staff to be certain that they have provided all information investors require for an informed decision. Since the company and its management are in possession of all facts relating to a company`s disclosure, they are responsible for the accuracy and adequacy of the disclosures they have made.

In addition, please be advised that the Division of Enforcement has access to all information you provide to the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance in connection with our review of your filing or in response to our comments on your filing.
