Setting up a sole children's e book store is a daring adventure. I would add young adult to the collection myself.

There are plenty of educational toys out there already that could be used for this purpose I believe. Perhaps an arrangement to support one of them could be devised. The biggest problems is that children's books really need vivid images. Battery life isn't much of an issue so other technologies like OLPC could be used as well.
