Love it!
The battery life is amazing! I noticed that sometimes there is leftover words bleeding through on the next screen but it doesn’t bother me. The page turning is very responsive. I love this little kindle!

I love that this connects to my account so I can control the age group for content and set time limits. My daughter loves the wide range of books that she can access. She would rather read on her kindle than play on her iPad! It is the perfect size & weight. The battery life & performance are great!
