[quote=Anonymous]We are considering an e-reader for our 10yr old avid reader for Christmas. This is the kid who begs to go to the bookstore to get the latest 39 Clues book or the just released Mark of Athena and Rangers Apprentice novels. He is usually reading 2-3 books at any given time. Is there enough inventory for books appropriate for his age to make it worthwhile? He also likes to download/play with the apps on his dad's iPad - the ability to play some games would be nice, but I don't want this to be primarily a gaming system. I'd like it's primary purpose to be an e-reader. I'd also like some parental controls to keep him from surfing to "undesirable" sites if the tablet is internet compatible. There are so many to choose from (Kindle, Nook, Google, Microsoft ... the iPad mini (but that is a little more $ than we were hoping to spend). Any recommendations?[/quote]
