Nook Ereaders for Tweens

If you are looking for a touchscreen ereader for a middle schooler, Nook is a good fit.  Most recently available is the Nook Touch, a totally touchscreen ereader for all ages, including tweens and teens.  The Nook Touch retails at $139, and has a 6" display.  The display size is bigger than that of an iPod touch, making it just a bit easier on your tween's eyes.  The Nook Touch incorporates lending capability, so your tween can swap ebooks with friends, as well.

If you have a bigger budget, Nook Color has a 7" display, and is currently the only popular ereader with a color display.  An augmented internet experience is incorporated into the Nook Color, making it similar in nature to many of the tablet computer choices.  Web browsing, email and applications are a sampling of Nook Color's options.


You can find a full selection of Nook Ereaders for tweens and teens, along with relevant accessories and cases, nook books, gift cards, and user reviews at Barnes and Noble.
