I want to buy an ebook reader for my 4 year old daughter (her 5th birthday is in February). In addition to being 4 though, she also has cerebral palsy, which makes it near impossible for her to turn paper pages. She is somewhat computer literate and uses an ipad like device to communicate (her receptive language skills are fine, but she has trouble forming a lot words, at least so that others understand her). Because of her disability she qualifies for the Library of Congress NLS program and should be able to borrow protected DAISY files. So I'm looking for a reader that's easy to use, preferably color, and can handle a DAISY file.

Any suggestions?
