No: The Glo requires at least 0.5A, so the charger must be able to output at least 0.5A. If it can output up to 2.4A, fine.

What really matter are the input and output voltages. Particularly, the charger must not output a voltage higher than 5V as it could burn your e-reader. But that's the standard USB output voltage, so any USB charger should do regarding that voltage.
