My 9 yr old son loves the idea of ebooks and has fun making the font bigger so it's easier to read. However, as a boy he tends to avoid reading in favour of playing outside or with other electronics. I have made sure that he has lots of paper and ebooks at various levels so that he has choices when he does want to read. So far all these options have kept him reading fairly regularly.
I guess I'm saying that while he loves the idea of ebooks, at this age he needs both paper and ebooks to keep him reading.
