Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

(a) By letter received by Enesco Group, Inc. (the "Company") on March 8, 2007, KPMG LLP ("KPMG"), previously the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company, notified the Company that the client-auditor relationship between the Company and KPMG has ceased.

(b) The audit reports of KPMG on the Company's consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were such reports qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

(c) During the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and subsequent interim period through March 8, 2007, there were no disagreements on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of KPMG, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports .

(d) During the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and subsequent interim period through March 8, 2007, there were no reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

(e) The Company has provided a copy of this Form 8-K to KPMG and requested KPMG to furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made by Company in this Form 8-K, and, if not, identifying the statements with which it does not agree.

(f) The Company currently does not expect to retain a new independent registered public accounting firm to replace KPMG due to the Company's expectation that, as a result of the recently completed sale of substantially all of its assets in a Section 363 asset sale pursuant to Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, it anticipates filing a plan of liquidation to distribute any remaining assets and effect the dissolution of the Company.

Very truly yours,
