I have a Kindle DX on order and when I see my 4 and 6 year old niece and nephew over Christmas I plan on loading it up with some good children's books with lots of pictures. I still enjoy fairy tales with images by illustrators like Arthur Rackham and Kate Greenaway, and I hope they will enjoy them too. Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, A Christmas Carol, and so many other books are just way better with great illustrations.
I think it's pretty cool how young kids can be and adopt new technology. I remember being astounded when my 4-year-old son could work the VCR just as well as I could. I wonder if Gutenberg ever said, "Look at little Grettle. She doesn't even rip the pages out of the books like other children her age."
