My son and I just finished "The Rise and Fall of the Kidsborian Empire" by Marshal Younger. Those Kidsboro books are sooooo cool!
Okay, based on your recommendation, I just bought this book to give to my granddaughter for her 12th birthday. Did I do wrong?? (After all, it IS fiction.) No, she will love it! It's written by one of the guys who writes for the Adventures in Odyssey radio program that Focus on the Family puts out. So if you're ok with those, this is the same type of thing. Another great book is The FruitTramp Kids, by Bobbie Montgomery. I got mine at the ABC, but I noticed this summer that they don't have them available any more, so I purchased one from Amazon.com for my nephew. And, of course, there's my all-time favorite, Swift Arrow, by Josephine Cunnington Edwards. You can still get that on Amazon. Oh, yeah, Nyla and the White Crocodile is great too!! It's by Norma Youngberg. It's an old mission story book from my childhood, and I got it at Amazon. So now you have Christmas taken care of too!!

Wow, that's a spendy little piece of technogadgetry. Let me get this right ... You pay $360 for the device and then you have to pay for each piece of material to read??? Seems way out for me ...

Yeah, it's way out for me. I just wondered if anyone had tried it & how they liked it. Or is there another technology that is similar that you like better??

I have purchased short works that are published in pdf. Usually they are a few dollars and delivered by email.
