When I was a kid, I was able to distinguish with the feeling of the book and smell, if it was new or not. I did like it, believe it or not. I had some kind of "adrenaline rush".
What I am trying to say is that the human touch of reading, feeling the real paper and interacting with a book, is very important for kids that are just learning how to read. Ereaders are "cold".
As an adult, I think reading an Oracle book is the same on ebook or hard cover, actually more convenient on my Kindle or iPad, but I do not think that can be good for young children, at least that's my opinion.
