She has an mp4 player that reads .txt is there a way that I can put ebooks on her mp4 player? do i need conversion software? Can i do this? HELP!!

Can You write another time what do You want to do?
If She have mp4+txt and You wanna put there ebook, then where is place for ereader?
Maybe You wanna take ebooks from her Mp4 to new ebook reader?
I'm confused...what to say.

ps.
If She loves to read it's good idea to buy her e-reader...

Hi, an mp4 player plays music doesn't it? If so, do you think the screen is realistically large enough to display the text of a book. If it's small, that would mean your daughter needs to constantly scroll down etc.

If your daughter is an avid reader, then she will absolutely adore an e-reader and the cost will be worth it. In a lot of cases, ebooks are cheaper than paperbacks, and you don't have the problem of storing them later.

Which country are you in? This will impact on the type of e-reader available to you. What sort of budget do you have in mind?

I believe encouraging kids to read is the best thing and this would really be an investment in her education and future, you can't go wrong!
