However, I don't want my child (or any visiting friends, for that matter) to be able to see every book I've ever bought for my own Kindle. Nor do I want the Fire to have any ability to purchase from Amazon without my permission.
So my main question is how best to set up the Amazon account for this particular device?
Does anyone have any specific advice on settings for a Kindle that will be used primarily by a child?
I want to be able to add book titles that I do approve to this device. As of yet, I am not sure how often that will be, though.
I am a relatively new Kindle user, so my current experience is limited.
Thank you in advance for any replies.

The only thing you can do is give them an account of their own. The apps store does have a pin you can set up now but that's the only parental control I know of.
