Going thru a boxful of paper books is a different experience than going thru a few pages of an ebook reader, color or not.
I respect your opinion but I disagree with it. For the same reason the smart board is excellent in K so would be a color ebook reader for kids. Imagine it could animate the pictures, read the book to them, pronounce the words. There are devices like this out not but they are rudimentary, expensive and lack content.

Kids like to touch gadgets and see them respond.... I think any toddler would love a touch color interactive ebook reader.
