Heh, my dad had the time-life 'mysteries' series---I forget if that was really what it was called, but the books were all about stuff like UFOs and the pyramids and such. My sister and I were very into them.
I think that my world will always be a mix of print and ebook because I already have a lot of books, love the library, buy certain kinds of books (including children's books) in paper over e etc. So if I ever do have kids, I am sure they will be bookworms, and I am sure they will be surrounded by paper books and have early e-experience. My experience as a teacher has been that the kids understand very well when is the appropriate time for technology. When we are all reading something together and I run a Powerpoint version on my netbook for them, that's great. And when I say now we will all pull out our books and read, that's great too. They seem to have no problems with both things being books, both things being reading and both things being just fine depending on the situation. The ones who have seen my ebook reader up close are the ones who stay for after-school care a few days a week, which I supervise. And I think they just assume that I have so many books to carry around with me that I would not be able to carry them all unless I had a computer for it. Which is true
