A: Hi, Kaylyn George, I think you're confused as Kindle is now 3rd generation. When choosing an eReader, you need to consider not only the physical properties of the device, but also compare eBook stores behind it. Sony has never been a contender for any

Children Using E-books a Growing Concern for Some

As times are changing throughout the tech world, an inevitable shift is how we read.  This change has already penetrated the lives of many adults and is now directing itself towards children.  Many believe that this change is for the worse and will further shorten the attention span and affect the literacy of children.

To children, e-books are very pleasing due to their engaging nature, occupying and enticing them to read.  E-books engage children by adding a new level of interaction between the child and story.  Some see this this interaction as replicating video games.  Parents may see this as positive, as this convinces children to read, but many see this as a negative change.

The negativity of this is seen through the other side of interaction between child and e-book.  The opposition of children using e-books believes that this interaction is doing nothing but eroding the attention span of children.  Another possible negative of this change is the replacing of adults in teaching children to read.  With interaction integrated into e-books, an adult is not needed to engage the child.  This interaction once again could negatively affect a child by decreasing literacy skills.  Skills such as focus on plot are lost when reading an e-book.
