Disney Brings eBooks To Kids Without A Standalone Reader

By Joanna Stern on September 30, 2009 at 3:40 AM

This is where I want a bright coloured Kiddie Kindle with a colour E-Ink screen. Disney has launched its Digital Books site. For $US8.95 a month kids can access over 500 ebooks, including Winnie the Pooh and Hannah Montana stories.

The entire reader is browser based and the books feature animated illustrations and authentic character voices. Amazon, a colour Kindle Kiddie would be so cool! In the meantime the Disney Netpal netbook will have to do for viewing the interactive children’s ebooks, but a kid can dream. [Disney Digital Books]
