Well, even if you have found a great selection of ebooks for your child, there is still one problem. Not all computers come with the software needed to open these files!

Not all companies release their ebooks in the same format, but many of them will offer you a couple different format choices.

The easiest format to use and manipulate is the .PDF format. This is a format developed by Adobe Acrobat which sometimes comes pre-installed on computers.

Most textbooks for online colleges come in this format. It is very easy to use and completely free unless you want to use the very advanced options.

If you have a Palm Pilot, Pocket PC, or handheld Windows device, you can use iSilo Reader. Unfortunately, this only offers you a 14 day free trial before you have to purchase it.

Mobipocket Reader is a great alternative to this because you get a 14 day free trial but you can use it for free even after it expires. You just dont have access to advanced features.

Obviously, these different types of reader programs will vary depending on your preferred device. Even a Sony PSP can be used for ebooks as well as a blackberry.

Many people dont feel comfortable letting children use any of these handheld devices because they can be quite pricey. It can be a lot easier to just let the children use your desktop or laptop PC and you can even keep track of how many pages they read in a certain time. This is a great option for homework.
