Dear Parent,
Welcome to the Eden Series—a gentle introduction to
reading.
These books are filled with fun. In this book we will meet
Fred, age 4, and his doll Kingie and share in their adventures.
Kids want to learn about the world. This Eden Series will
teach—not just play around.
They will learn words such as STOP.
They will learn their colors. I hope to teach many colors by
the end of the Eden Series.
In this book, we will do some very elementary map reading.
After this Eden Series there are over 30 Life of Fred books
(in math, language arts, science, and financial planning) that will
extend from kindergarten all the way into the third year of college.
Let the journey begin!

They looked
at the water fountain.
They came to the Math Building. This
is where Fred and Kingie live.

They live in room 314 on the third

They ran up the stairs
from the first floor to the second
and from the second floor
to the third.
They ran down the hallway to their
home in room 314.

They were so happy to be home again.
Fred gave his doll a big hug.
Fred looked out the window from his
room on the third floor.
He wondered whether he could see Fall
River Lake.
He couldn’t. It was too far away.
