Home schooling and Professor Beetoven
Professor Beetoven and the cast of characters who are his friends are a perfect arsenal in any homeschool curriculum. Professor Beetoven is a friendly bee with a big brain and is curious about the world around him; moreover, he loves to communicate everything he knows. In The Pacific Ocean, the Professor shares the stage with Barnacle Bill, a loveable merchant mariner who is a bit hard of hearing, as they share information about the ocean, its parameters and measurements, its dangers and ports and its multitude of inhabitants, as well as a few, perhaps unintentional, puns. This is a wonderful book to have as a tool to teach while “taking a break”, an entertaining and humorous, fun-filled adventure ripe with various facts that become in the ears of small children morsels of curiosity and wonder. Professor Beetoven and his friends communicate a sense of adventure not only in the normal sense (Tad the Frog excitedly wonders if they will surf the waves in the harbor, but it kindly advised that harbors do not have waves), but also make learning itself an adventure.
The home school environment is sometimes more rigorous that other styles of education, and home schooled children are often made to meet higher standards of excellence than kids who attend public school. The Professor and his cast of friends are extremely easy for kids to relate with, and offer a way of teaching kids not only facts about science and the world around them, but about socialization as well, how people relate and communicate with each other, and why it is important to build strong character qualities such as humility, kindness, patience and humor. The Pacific Ocean is a great book to use to teach scientific facts to your small children about the sea, as well as to engage them in thinking about the people they know in a more profound, yet not overtly preachy or moralistic, way.

“About Us”
James A. Rumpf II
Picture drawn by Joe Oriolo for James A. Rumpf in 1982.
Born in Queens, New York and raised in North Dallas, Texas, James Rumpf II is a long-time cartoon fan, which is one of the reasons he started publication of a series of adventures featuring Professor Beetoven, a friendly Ambassador of Intelligence who “knows everything”, and various other characters in the cartoon gems.com universe. Professor Beetoven was originally created in the early 1980s by Joe Oriolo, and was later featured in a cable pilot cartoon titled, “Friends Make the World Go Round”.
James has brought back Professor Beetoven and his group of unlikely cartoon friends from the logs of cartoon history and has been very busy reintroducing them all to the world, particularly to the fresh minds of young children.
Some of the cartoons that influenced James early on when he was a kid were Felix the Cat, Casper the Friendly Ghost, Popeye the Sailor Man, Top cat and many others. He likes to capture that same flavor of childhood innocence and curiosity about the world in his own characters and situations. These kinds of cartoons, he says, “are a safe escape. They are the only things that make my mind turn to wonder”. Cartoons, he says, are an entrance “into another world where there are no worries”.
Leading the pack in the cartoongems.com universe is Professor Beetoven, a bee that wears a graduation cap and who is extremely smart. But he isn’t just an intelligent bee, rather, says James, “he is the kind of person in life who knows everything and is just friendly to everyone, and you wonder, ‘how did he know that?’” In the first book published in a series titled, “The Adventures of Professor Beetoven”, James had the idea of teaching young children about the Pacific Ocean while entertaining them at the same time. So, he collected together a creative group online, including illustrator Ron Neal and writer Kristin Johnson, and they painstakingly worked on producing a quality book that was almost a year in the making. The end result is a funny, captivating story with well-drawn comic-style characters, imbued with humor, an engaging style, and lots of facts about the sea.
James is working to make the series continue until one day soon Professor Beetoven is alive and well in the minds of millions of children, the Ambassador of Intelligence, igniting curiosity about the natural world, teaching clear and positive values, and entertaining them with lots of humor and detail. After all, his mission is, he says, “to win people over one laugh at a time.”
Dubios Diction
Cartoon people like Dubios Diction crack me up. He is the ultimate funny looking cartoon person. He is absolutely brilliant and a total smooth operator. He is perfect for pipe shops, older people related business’s. Any business having to do with a cool looking cartoon mascot or logo. Dubios has the look of a “Ultimate” cartoon man.
A funny little bit of animation.

Entertaining Learning
Teaching kids while entertaining them at the same time is sort of like using sugar to sweeten medicine so that it goes down more smoothly. A great tool to this end is the kid’s ebook, the Pacific Ocean, which features nicely illustrated, well-drawn, comic style characters who are open and friendly and completely absent of any subversive traits. Children are drawn to Professor Beetoven, who talks about the measurements and dangers and inhabitants of the sea, as well as the history of its chartography. Kids don’t even know they are learning, but are excited to discover new information about the natural world.

When I was a kid learning was difficult. We didn’t have the internet, we had a television with about 3 major channels ABC, NBC and CBS. Cartoons were normal in those days meaning no complex scripts and political dialogue. Cartoon characters are supposed to be simple, cute and adorable. Below are some free e books for kids and adults. We hope you enjoy them and feel free to pass them on to a friend.

THE HONEY DEE EXPERIENCE
THE HONEY DEE EXPERIENCE
There was a time in America when the pace was slower, the smiles came easier, and people didn’t cut themselves off from strangers by wearing ear buds and striding past others indifferently, while focusing on handheld phones and computers. It was a time when men sat outside playing checkers, greeting neighbors; a time when children could safely befriend men in the neighborhood, when police officers were viewed with honor and respect.
From the 1600s through much of the 20th century, the United States was viewed with awe by the people of most countries in the world. Coming her was such a powerful goal that millions of families packed what they could and said goodbye to everyone and everything to become Americans. The first and second generation immigrants who were putting their ambitions and heads to good use were finding a country that was generally open to newcomers.
That’s the feeling that Honey Dee has and the life you can relax into — even if for only a few minutes a day, with a smooth, rich cup of Honey Dee’s private blend of coffee. Turn off the phone and tune back into…your feelings. Many European cultures still haven’t lost the appreciation for relaxing with a truly fulfilling cup of coffee and reflection of the day gone by and the up ahead. From Honey Dee’s subtle first taste — through the strong, mid-flavors that settle into the memorable aftertastes that settle into your taste buds, allowing them to “listen” to your senses, Honey Dee’s roast and aromas will help you to get back in touch with your inner satisfaction.

BARK LESS WAG MORE
BARK LESS WAG MORE
We live in a culture where entertainment is the premium value, where everything from the food we eat to children’s ebooks is targeted to merely attract the eye, satisfy the ear, or appeal to the quick fix. An entire way of looking at the world has evolved from fast food and infected us, and this has a tremendous impact on our children, who suffer from short attention spans, superficial values, and a real lack of in depth knowledge or interest in the world around them. As they become older, texting becomes more important than real communication, formulaic and bland pop music tends to shape an average teens sense of identity, and violent, crude movies takes the place of reading and learning.
Well, kids may lie somewhere within a spectrum, but it’s important to inculcate in them the desire for something more than the fluff and empty pretext for entertainment that is thrown at them constantly every day from multiple media points. One way of igniting a more profound level of awareness in your child is to begin to challenge them early. Stretch their imaginations beyond the surface by introducing them to books and kid’s ebooks that go beyond the cheap gimmick or passing fad.
Professor Beetoven and his friends provide an example of a children’s ebook that offers not only an appealing, colorful cast of characters, but which also present a challenge to learn more about the adventure of science. In the kid’s ebook, The Pacific Ocean, children are not only entertained, but also introduced to amazing facts about the sea, and a constant diet of that kind of illuminating knowledge can provide just the kind of nutrition that can set a course for a healthy intellectual diet when the child is older as well.

JUST THE FACTS Kids
JUST THE FACTS Kids (cartoon ebooks)
One of the primary ways kids learn is through example, and what is more attractive to a young person then a cartoon? A story that is paneled and illustrated is an immediate way for little people to access information as they are pulled in through colorful characters, the obvious interchange of dialogue and simple plot techniques to keep them engaged. Through the innovative and economical technology of ebooks, children are now able to have access to children’s ebooks that are not only fun to read, but can be educational too.
Professor Beetoven is not only a knowledgeable cartoon bee who “knows everything”, but a friendly, unassuming and humble bee as well. When it comes to both being entertained and learning about the world through ebooks, children respond positively to Professor Beetoven, who is a cartoon character with a straightforward, friendly manner. In “Professor Beetoven’s First Adventure: The Pacific Ocean”, he joins the loveable comic character, Barnacle Bill, in communicating several key and basic facts throughout the plotline of the story. A lot is communicated in a fun context.
What has been acquired is summed up easily so at the end of the ebook, children are able to process all the information that has been communicated in the storyline. “Professor Beetoven’s Magic Book of Knowledge” contains an outline of everything that the learned Bee and his friends have discovered in the course of their sea adventure. It contains just the facts, each one stated simply and objectively, that have already been conveyed, from data about the length, width and depth of the ocean to information about the International Date Line and the various explorers that have mapped the sea. This is a powerful way of driving home the educational value of the cartoon, and reinforcing what has been learned.

How Cartoons Teach Reading Skills
Kids are attracted to subjects that initially interest them and appeal to the level of growth where they find themselves, which is why there is no market for romantic children’s ebooks for first graders, and why sixth grade children do not become excited over characters they once loved but have outgrown. When young children are first learning to read, comics are a great way to keep them interested. Cartoon characters in kid’s ebooks that balance both illustration and text keep children interested, draw them into the story, and motivates children to not only want to read, but to begin reading themselves. 
Children who interact with cartoon characters in books and children’s e books who are learning to read are able to relax and put their efforts into a more natural context, and are likely see the association between images and words by studying the comic illustrations as they move through the story. Reading takes on its natural purpose, becomes a secondary function rather than a point of stress and personal concern. Even so, when children realize they are actually reading, the accomplishment is no less of a victory, and they may even feel helped or encouraged by their comic cartoon character friend.
In our day of mass media, movies on cell phone, and endless, incessant noise from every quarter and infiltrating every corner, inducing a child to sit quietly and read a book or kid’s e-book can be a huge hassle. It shouldn’t be something you do just to keep them quiet in the car, but the value of reading itself should be emphasized. There is not better motivator than allowing your children to read material that interests them, and comic cartoons are an excellent motivator in that regard, and a great way to start off children on the path to literacy.
Innocence and Wisdom
Cartoon characters have the capacity to reach children in a way that other methods do not in that they can relate more readily to well-drawn figures who have many of the same attributes they do. Characters like Professor Beetoven, Katnap Cat, Tad the Frog and Barnacle Bill (all of whom figure prominently in the children’s ebook, The Adventures of Professor Beetoven: The Pacific Ocean) all communicate both excellent values and informative facts while sharing some of the most important childlike qualities with which all kids can easily pick up on. Professor Beetoven, for instance, is the primary arbiter of knowledge, touted as the Ambassador of Intelligence, donned with a graduation cap and smart-looking spectacles, but he is also, like a child, open, friendly, inquisitive, and genuinely excited about the facts that he communicates. You will find no snide sarcasm or sophomoric insults slipping from his lips, like you might in so many other contemporary cartoons or comics, and in other ebooks for kids, but instead, Professor Beetoven and all of his friends possess a basic quality of humility that keeps them open and transparent. This is true even when they struggle with many of the same issues kids face, such as Tad the Frog’s frustration with being misheard and his words misconstrued by Barnacle Bill. A funny story, Tad the Frog nevertheless must learn to understand that Barnacle Bill is not intentionally being rude, but has a problem hearing, and therefore he should deal with his feelings of frustration and learn to be patient and accepting of others, flaws and all. Kids can pick up very quickly on these shared qualities and identify with characters in such a way that it opens channels to share curiosity and interests about the natural world as well. This is an excellent teaching tool than can be used by educators and parents alike.
Cartoons for Remedial Students
Remedial students ages 7 to 9 who have trouble either with reading or learning about the world around them may find the use of well-done cartoon characters from ebooks online as a teaching tool to be a helpful solution, rather than a distraction. Part of the problem that many young students have does not necessarily have anything to do with their ability to acquire knowledge or learn new facts, but more with their ability to project and apply knowledge within the confines of four classroom walls.
Some children have not learned how to take isolated facts and figures that are conveyed in an abstracted setting and create the kind of mental platform that is necessary for understanding what is being taught. Learning becomes a method of rote memory, lacking meaning, and is therefore very dry and confusing, which mitigates against a child’s interest and desire to learn. Education thus becomes a dreadful affair, and a young child can “drop out” or accept the notion that he is stupid based on teacher response.
An alternative route is to seek ways to create context wherein the information being conveyed can adhere to a more meaningful dynamic. One way to do this is through cartoon characters that appeal to the child both aesthetically, as well as personas that mirror the child’s own simplicity, innocence and intrinsic desire to discover the world. Additionally, a well-rendered story from a cartoon book can show the child rather than just telling her how the facts being taught apply to the real world. Kids are automatically attracted to cartoons, the color and flow of them, and it is accessibility that makes them a powerful educational tool.
Good cartoon characters and stories create the necessary context that enables children to more easily apprehend and understand the information that is being taught as she relates to the character, becomes emotionally invested, and through identification with the cartoon characters in children’s eBooks not only picks up on the knowledge that is being conveyed, but also experiences a transfer of excitement and intrigue regarding the possibilities for learning about the world around her. A simple humorous story with appealing characters who model a child’s natural inquisitiveness can make all the difference when it comes to teaching remedial children not only facts and figures , but also through inciting a thirst for knowledge teaching them methods of how to learn, as well.
OBSESSED WITH CARTOONS
Adults and children of all ages are obsessed with cartoons because of the way they tell stories in a way that not only appeals to the imagination and the mind, but to the eye as well. Comic drawings such as can be found in eBooks for kids are very popular because they not only serve to educate children, but also keep them focused and intrigued by a storyline that plays out before their very eyes. Well-drawn illustrations that are simple and pleasing to the child’s eye can carry her along while being entertained by interesting characters, and storyline that play to the kinds of interests and activities targeted for a child audience.
Among kids eBooks, Professor Beethoven first adventure, The Pacific Ocean, stands out as one that is worthy of obsession. In it, children not only discover various facts about the natural world, the dimensions of the ocean, the history of those who charted it, the number and kinds of fish in the sea, and the potential dangers of seafarers, but it is all illustrated with funny comic characters who each appeal to a child’s tastes, interests and eye. Professor Beethoven, the Ambassador of Intelligence, doesn’t cram hard information down the throat, but rather is a friendly bee with a graduation cap and a diploma in humble smarts. Younger kids love poring over the illustrations, discovering every detail, laughing at the mis-hearings of the kindly old merchant marine, Barnacle Bill, and almost incidentally, really learning about all kinds of stuff that will pique their interest to know more. More than that, older kids will discover the joy of reading as the text is presented in story form, but punctuated with excellent and appealing illustrations. They won’t even be aware they are learning things, but will inspire the desire to learn more.
