If there are children in your home, or your children’s homes, the time is going to come very, very soon when each of them is going to need a Kindle. Even better, we are even getting close to the time when each child is going to want a Kindle! I’m not trying to get you to click on these links to buy a dozen Kindle 3s
or wi-fi Kindles
for all the children you know, although of course I won’t mind if you do. My real point is just to make sure you that you are up to date on how important Kindles are getting to be for kids who love to read, who have to read, or who realize (or have parents who realize) that reading is a huge key to their ability to thrive in the future. So, not to focus on homework on the weekend with today’s twelve new freebies in the Kindle Store, but I’m just thinking that the weekend tends to be the time when we see our kids for long enough to actually have a conversation….

Tom Laurence knows that he has it all. A successful lawyer, he is set to marry his childhood sweetheart and come into his inheritance. Feeling increasingly as if some important element is missing from his life, he returns to his old passion, painting, in the hope that he will feel more fulfilled. Instead, new conflicts arise when he encounters the beautiful but elusive model Elizabeth in the months before his wedding, and he finds himself torn between duty and desire.
Elizabeth has abandoned her own art studies to marry. Events in her past have left her traumatised, but not for the reasons that one may assume. Carrying a sense of guilt and struggling to bring up her son, Elizabeth has dismissed the idea of ever having another relationship.
Although neither can ignore their growing attraction, Elizabeth realises that a relationship between them could tear Tom’s life apart and hurt those closest to him.
Could an unexpected turn of events offer the possibility of a happy ending?

Twelve Kindle-Compatible Math and Science Textbooks
That future is here, and here are 12 very useful and very free high school math and science textbooks to prove it. With innovative public high school administrators like Clearwater (FL, US) High School’s Keith Mastorides buying Kindles by the thousands for their students, it is just a matter of time before we’ll see textbook publishers jumping through hoops to provide Kindle editions of their texts. But these 12 free math and science ebooks with text-to-speech enabled are a great start, and they are well worth downloading and keeping in your Kindle archives for whenever you or someone younger in your family might need them. They’re pretty good on the Kindle 2 or 3, fine on a Kindle DX, and especially user-friendly on an iPad, Mac, or PC.
Can you imagine a future when high school students can work on their tans, shoot baskets in the driveway, or chill on the sofa while their Kindles read their homework assignments to them?
