'Ocean Rudee & Company', as a project of ISI, will educate children and young families by experience - through the development and distribution of interactive educational audio, video and computer media. These literature-based story-telling programs will provide 4 to 8-year old boys and girls (along with their primary caregivers) increased opportunities to engage in giggle fests, creative visualization and active imagination exercises. All of which have been proven to enhance literacy skills, sharpen mental acuity, increase self-esteem, strengthen personal development and promote a more positive outlook on life.

In brief, 'Ocean Rudee & Company' is in the business of: "Inspiring Young Children to Read!"
