Are Kindles Good For Kids?, from Ken Drees

Are Kindles good for kids?
George Zachar answers:
My 11 year old daughter was a reluctant reader until we got her a kindle. Now we can't get her to stop reading.
My 15 year old son seems to have his kindle surgically attached. He reads while doing yoga.
I recommend an iPod touch with the free kindle app. It fits in any pocket and lacks many of the distracting attributes of the iPad.
