New Mr. Duz Book Offers Children Alternative to TV, DVD and Video Games
New Mr. Duz book series increases vocabulary skills, learning skills, and communication skills.
Springfield, MO (PRWEB) August 22, 2007 -- A life long advocate and promoter of reading to children, MrDuz.com LLC founder Patrick Wellman isn't surprised by the news about baby videos and DVDs. In fact, this month he released "Mr. Duz Goes to the Dentist" in an effort to combat illiteracy and poor social skills that he believes are being created by a combination of television programming, video games and a lack of entertaining developmental reading material. "We feed kids good food for their bodies, we should read them good books for their brains," says Wellman. "Turn off the television, throw away the play station, and read your kid a book. It's the right thing to do."
Mr. Duz and his dog, Molly, are the wholesome and inspirational subjects of Mr. Duz books. The books present simple stories about every day life events such as going to the dentist. Mr. Duz books feature full eight and a half by eleven page illustrations that are bright, cheery, uncluttered and easy to understand. The text is a brief narrative that tells the story of Mr. Duz through a simple narrative designed to speak to the child without being preachy. The second book, "Mr. Duz Goes to the Doctor" will be released in September and "Mr. Duz Trick or Treat" will prepare children for Halloween in October. The company plans to release sixty books over the next five years. "Mr. Duz always does the right thing," says Wellman. "In fact, we guarantee it. I might be crazy, but I stand behind the lessons found in every Mr. Duz book."
