	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.
