Hmm..not so sure

I got an email ad from Barnes and Noble for the new! latest! V tech reader -- something touted to help the bittiest children to learn to love to read.

Something didn't sit right with me.

Why would I give another electronic gizmo to my little one (complete with animation) to get them into reading?

I give my kids books.

Ones that don't light up and talk. Ones without buttons.

Here's my gut feeling - they are getting kids ready to be itouch/nook/kindle buyers.

End of story.

  1. That's very interesting...my hope is that they're not selling real well and they're pushing email offers to see if they find more buyers.
