The Publisher

"At a time where controversial language issues
in Quebec and all across North America lead to so much
misunderstanding, I've developed a new and uniquely Canadian
approach for kids and their parents to experience the joy of reading
in both official languages, and even a third language which may be
part of their heritage. It's called a "Read-A-Round"™ storybook and
it's all about real friendship and understanding, in all
languages!"
- Derryl Burke
Derryl Burke is a Canadian inventor and publisher, who
believes that creative self-expression and play are fundamental to
the fullest enjoyment of life - a concept which is innately
understood by children, but somehow lost in the competitive nature
of the adult world. To this end, he is always looking for more
engaging ways for kids of all ages to play and learn. Derry's interest
in developing toys and new recreational activities was sparked by
his work with physically and intellectually challenged
children. He discovered that there is a way for every child to
learn, from
the most challenged to the most gifted, and that's inevitably
through play.
"I believe in reading for all young children, of
all nationalities and languages, and the earlier they begin to read
the better. To encourage an early start, reading should be a fun and
exciting learning activity. The Adventures of Freddy the Fish is a
creative, engaging way for young children to learn through
play."
