Cute book, well made, great for small readers.
This is an adorable, well bound board book for small children. It has a nice variety of pictures and words for beginning readers.

A good value for the price
1 of 1 found this helpful I've become tablet fan over the years. Since I'm in range for wifi 90% of the time, the larger-than-a-phone size makes them much better for most casual tasks, like surfing the Web, reading news, and playing light games. The Kindle products are solid for the most part and, though there are fewer apps through Amazon than the Google Play store, I find they are typically the apps I use most anyway. In other words, it's not the drawback it once was when tablets were new to consumers. If you're a voracious reader, it's easy to find good, low cost books and works pretty easily with public library systems. I've had Amazon Fire tablets of all sizes; the 8" is a nice size to fit in a moderately-sized bag and it's so lightweight you'll nearly forget you have it with you.
Now the only drawbacks in my opinion is that the newer Fire tablets like this are not nearly as well made in terms of the hardware; I doubt they will enjoy the long life of even the original Fire. It feels significantly more "plasticy" than the older models. The clarity for ready is the main drawback though, as the older models are far crisper. That said, most people won't note these drawbacks, so if you're looking for a good budget tablet, go for it!

A compact surprise
1 of 1 found this helpful I purchased the first one of these (used) as a gift for a friend who needed something just a bit bigger than her phone for browsing the web when she does't want to get out her laptop. After testing it thoroughly, I was quickly impressed by the sound, the screen clarity, and the zippy responsiveness.
I was worried about the 8gb limit, but since I mostly stream video, internet TV, music, and podcasts, and I'm not one to keep a lot of files on a tablet, it wasn't an issue during my time testing it. I liked it so much, I went back for another, since this fits in my purse even better than a 7" model and I notice very little difference in the screen size, due to the aspect ratio.
If you're looking for a value device and/or one to carry with you without worry of theft or breaking it, this is an amazing value. This is also perfect for my friend who will use it similarly.
