Good article<
http://www.nytimes.com/2012/03/29/technology/personaltech/bringing-up-a-young-reader-on-e-books.html> in the NYTimes with references to the Center for Literacy<

"Whether you're reading a book, whether you're reading an e-book, whether you're watching a video. Co-interacting, co-viewing, is the best way for them to learn."
"We are seeing some evidence that parents expect the e-books to do it all and are stepping back from the engagement with their children."
CASL will have a workshop on eBooks on May 12. The event is listed on the
CASL ning<
