I am entering this contest because I would like to win a Sony PRS-700.
By having the new Sony, I could use my current Sony PRS-505 like Johnny Appleseed used his seeds. I would use my PRS-505 with different kinds of stories, and newspaper feeds to spread the love of reading to others.
For example, I currently use my ebook reader to keep my son interested in reading. Whenever he sees me reading my PRS 505, many times I will simply hand it to him so that he can see what I am doing. There are also times such as when I was reading "The Iliad" when I would begin reading out loud to him and discuss with him the story as well as Greek mythology and philosophy in general.
How easy will it be to simply hand the PRS-505 over to the interested kid and say, "You like reading? How about I lend you my ebook and you can keep reading. Then when I pick up the ebook, we can discuss what you read."
It is my hope that I will continue to spread the benefit of reading while also interacting with children and discussing with them all of the wonderful things to be discovered in books.
Help me spread the seeds of the joys of reading.
