Dear Noodle Kidoodle Stockholder:
MERGER PROPOSED - PLEASE VOTE NOW!
Zany Brainy, Inc. and Noodle Kidoodle, Inc. have agreed on a merger of
our two companies. Enclosed is a joint proxy statement/prospectus that
provides you with detailed information about this proposed merger and a proxy
card for you to vote your Noodle Kidoodle shares.
To vote, simply sign and date the enclosed proxy card and return it in the
postage-paid envelope that has been provided.
For the merger to be approved, a majority of all outstanding Noodle
Kidoodle shares must be voted FOR the merger. Please note that if you support
the merger, you MUST actually vote your shares FOR the merger. If you take no
action at all, it will be considered as a vote against the merger.
Regardless of the number of shares you own, your vote is VERY important.
We hope that you will take a moment to help us reach the required vote.
I enthusiastically support this combination of Zany Brainy and Noodle
Kidoodle, and join with the members of our board of directors in recommending
that you vote FOR the merger.
/s/ Stanley Greenman
