They are not typically books kids learn to read on. Rather they are books to read to kids. For that, e-books work fine. Turning a page or swiping a screen, I personally don't think the difference is that great or important.
Yeah, I stated that originally in my post but edited it out. There's even a picture of one of these in Alexander's original post. Those are the ones my friends and I were reading back in the day.

And yeah, I agree, these aren't the books you learn to read on. They're simple, but they contain big vocabulary that 3-4 year-olds aren't ready for. They use these books with 7 year-olds even.
